My Starghans for the twins are Done

Here are the Starghans for the twins that are due in May. They are for a lady at work whose son girlfriend is having twins. There is the girl one here for the the girl twin. Here is the boy starghan I made for the boy twin.
Here they are side by side along wth my foot lol. The straghans measure 42 inches from point to point and 36 1/2 inches from top point to valley I think they call it. I made them both with Red Heart worsted yarns and they were very heavy and rough when I got done with them. After I was finished I washed them on gentle and dried them on the air fluff cycle and they came out soft and lightweight. I used the worsted weight yarn b/c even though the twins will be here in May it is still kind of cold here in Indianapolis so they are kind of thick. The next one I make will be either an eight or twelve point and it will be made with baby yarn b/c it'll be going to California where it is mcuh warmer.

The Bratz Babyz gets some clothes

That's what the Bratz Babyz look like when you bring her home in the box. This is a baby doll she should have clothes on besides a one piece and socks. Then I decided she needed clothes on so here she is with her clothes on that I decided to make her. That's the first time I ever seen a Bratz baby covered up from head to toe. I will be making more outfits for her in the future and the other one I have well my gid daughter Lucy that is. I will make the other Bratz baby a gothic outfit as well as others. I also closed the back of the top with snaps but I may use velcro next time.

My first ever Starghan

Here is my first ever starghan. I got the pattern from Angelcrafts it's called 'Six Point Round Ripple Baby Afghan' I used Caron Simply Soft in White, Orchid, and Iris and a H hook. It was easier to do then I thought it would be. It just took me so long b/c I work everyday so I barely had time to work on it. Here it is in it's progress up until the end:




Well that was the stages of it and now it is ready to go to California when I get some more stuff for the soon to be born baby girl. I have two more to make for a boy and girl.

Look what I did for my moms' doll

This is the book I got the pattern to do the dress for my moms' Cabbage Patch doll. It's the pink dress that is on the cover. I had to use a bigger hook(H or I) and Caron Simply Soft in Watermelon and Grape.
Here is my moms' baby in the outfit. She is too cute it took me about a day seeing as I had to go to work but it worked up fast. I had to add more rows in the watermelon color b/c it was seven ros then the purplr but I did ten rows then the purple. The booties I just did a tube and then shell edged it around. Here is the outfit on the chair. It not as bright as it looks in the pic. My mom just loves the outfit which makes me happy.

Another Poncho set I did

Here are two more ponchos I did for my cousins' daughters. The one on the left is for her 8 yr. old and the one on the right is for her 3 yr. old. Both ponchos can fit me so they are big, but that is how their mom wants them. They are from the pattern on the Lion Brand site called the 'Groovy Granny Poncho' I just used smaller hooks seeing as that is an adult pattern.
