I have lots of memories laying on the floor in her living room watching TV or playing with my siblings and cousins!<br />

That being said, I wanted to make something similar for my sister and nephew-to-be. Jeremy and Annie like to visit the zoo and have taken many pictures of the giraffes. I thought this would be appropriate for their household. It is one of my very own first designs!<br />

I am very excited to start blogging and documenting the fun things that I have made.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VoVigb_dIUE/TbL15Wy6OoI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/6HgprSfCaY4/s1600/100_8321.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VoVigb_dIUE/TbL15Wy6OoI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/6HgprSfCaY4/s320/100_8321.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><br />
<br />
<br />
I love this little poncho! I had forgotten that I had made it!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6oOfAo66Z9I/TbL3qX8LzzI/AAAAAAAAAAU/ihAefMVXOCA/s1600/100_9353.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-6oOfAo66Z9I/TbL3qX8LzzI/AAAAAAAAAAU/ihAefMVXOCA/s320/100_9353.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
I found a pattern somewhere on clearance for .49 cents. This was one of the patterns in it. It was so easy and I love making these little baby buntings and pillows. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hd3c9vpZHLQ/TbL3-MpfrPI/AAAAAAAAAAY/ZImXLMJAFBA/s1600/100_9356.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hd3c9vpZHLQ/TbL3-MpfrPI/AAAAAAAAAAY/ZImXLMJAFBA/s320/100_9356.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><br />
This is another version of the baby bunting and pillow, I also made a matching sweater with baby frog buttons to go with it!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GAHVfJwYq-w/TbL4KAiUkzI/AAAAAAAAAAc/iz1ZJm3i9qU/s1600/100_9376.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GAHVfJwYq-w/TbL4KAiUkzI/AAAAAAAAAAc/iz1ZJm3i9qU/s320/100_9376.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Well that is a quick peek in to my past projects. I off to go work on some current ones!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Have a great day everybody!<br />

<br />
Welcome to Stitches, Hooks and Sticks or SHS for short! During the next few months I will be sharing my new adventure into the design world of sewing, crochet and knitting! Many of my friends have said that I need to open an etsy shop and sell my creations! This blog is my exploration into this new world! I hope you will be willing to share you opinions of my work.<br />
<br />
Well off to my machine to start working!<br />
