Make ALL the Baby Things!

Yes, thats right. Its been about a year since I last posted. But I have good reasons!

Reason #1 is that I got started making another Woven Plaid Blanket, but this time in KING SIZED.

Yes, I do know how insane that sounds. Thats why I gave myself a full year to get it done before my sister's wedding this past June. For the record, I did not get it done in time. It presented plenty of challenges, and it basically boils down to the fact that in order to weave it correctly (without shrinking it), I had the husband build a frame on which I could weave it - but the frame is also king-sized (at least in width) and it keeps me confined to the basement. Combined with the fact that I have to lean over uncomfortably in order to weave, it was a MUCH slower process than I anticipated based on the baby blanket size. The moral of the story being that I got about half of the weaving done by her bridal shower, so I presented it to her in its semi-complete status, with the promise that SOON I will get it done. Soon.

Reason #2 is that the husband and I got an awesome piece of news this February: We're expecting our first baby in October!!! Yaaaaaay!!!!

The wonders of morning sickness, followed by the feeling of "I'm so fat, why can't I bend forward" also made the weaving of the plaid blanket problematic. So instead, I decided that between me and all of my other friends who were sporting baby bumps, it was time to make ALL the Baby Things!



So, without further delay, here's most of the stuff I've been working on this summer!
