He's Getting Bigger...

My little grandson is growing by leaps and bounds...He's in the 95%ile as far as height and weight. Can't wait to see him again. Those little cheeks are going to get so much smooching in December when they come for a visit!

So I went looking for a little present to make for him. I went to my absolute favorite craft store while visiting here in Elkhart, IN. The craft store is Erica's Craft and Sewing Center. They have a huge selection of wonderful sewing machines and a store packed to the rafters from ceiling to floor with yarn, fabrics, projects, counted cross-stitch, felting, wools, kids' crafts, needlework, punch needle supplies and tons more stuff. 

What I like about this store is that there are model after models displayed next to the patterns. How could you not want to buy the pattern when you see these beautiful projects made up in the store?

I saw the baby bibs and was hooked. I bought the pattern and two bibs for now...(You can buy the bibs at Babies 'R' Us) 

I also bought three little kits to make the bibs. That's another thing I love about this store. If you don't have the "eye" for finding your own fabrics, the store sells little kits of fabric pieces, notions and everything you need for the pattern. 

I fell in love with these little coin purses....

So I bought the pattern and two little kits. Not sure what I'm going to do with them once I make them, I wish I could sell them and make a little money while traveling on the road. Maybe I'll post a little "for sale" gadget on my travel blog or Facebook and see if there are any nibbles! I'd better get busy and start crafting!  Until next time.......
