Snowmass Craftiness

I spent last weekend in Snowmass Village, at Tina’s uncle’s house, where he’d invited Tina & her son & her nephew to come up & do some golfing for a few days.  Given my golf game on a normal day (BAD!!), I don’t ever golf with these people – they all play well, and play for money, and my game is SO not pretty.  Last year when I went with them, I took my bike, and biked down the ski hills for a couple of days.  This year, though, with my lousy knees (whine!), I couldn’t do much of that.  So, I decided to go the crafty route to entertain myself while the rest of the crew was hitting balls and losing cash.

I took the Featherweight, a whole big stash of fabric & notions, and this book (thank you!).  It’s loaded with fun and easy projects to work on.  I completely couldn’t resist this project, simply because they were SO CUTE! – fortunately, one friend from work is about to have a new baby boy, and another has a new baby nephew, so I had a good excuse for making tiny stuff.

They are all cotton on the front, and flannel on the back (some cuter flannel than others!).  Not only were they super cute and super fun to make, they were also EASY!  I only really screwed up one of them – which for me, is QUITE a major accomplishment.
