The first three pictures of are a fleece blanket, I just finished this morning, for Mr. Boo. Of course it is red(his favorite)with puppies(again his favorite). I got lucky and found the material at my local Wally store. I just edged it with the silky blanket binding. His sister has a Strawberry Shortcake one that my mom made her. Since mom passed away when Mr. Boo was only two he does not have a big blanket from grandma. So this is the next best thing, one from mom. I love the doggies on the material they are too cute with freckles and all.
This silly looking creature is going to be a puppy snuggle blanket. Yes, Mr. Boo is going to be 7 in March but he wants a snuggle puppy blanket. He loved the bunnies that I did for the teachers and wanted a snuggle puppy of his own. I am trying to get an ear worked up that I like, so far no luck. Since it is for an older child I put on the safety eyes and nose. It is really big, so far the head measures 6" tall.
This is the puppy scarf I have started for Mr. Boo also. At first it was going to be red with black ears. Now he has requested that "if you are making me a puppy scarf, PLEASE make the ears blue!". He wants it to match his crochet blanket that I made him. So far I have 9 puppy head finished. They work up pretty fast.
And last but not least, I have started crocheting washcloths for my mom-in-law(mom). She loves to get these for Christmas or at any other time she can get a hold of them. Her favorite are the granny squares, but I plan to surprise her with some new ones this year. I plan to make a set for Boo's teacher this year also. I also got her one of those insulated cups with the straw and lid. We are going to fill it with candy. YUM!! And of course Boo's teacher from last year (who I still go help also) needs her cherry sours from the dollar general. If you have a dollar general near you, you need to go buy a bag of them. They are the cherry sours in the blue bag with the happy face on it. We love them here too. Well I have wasted enough time. I guess I better get to work on some of these projects or they will not be finished by Christmas. I still have to make Princess Hopeynope a penguin or my name will be "MEAN MOMMY". Hope you all have a great day and happy crafting!!
