Every day I'd read blogs. About sewing, crocheting, and crafting for kids. Obviously at the time, we didn't have kids. We weren't planning on kids yet. <em><strong>It didn't stop me!</strong></em> I had a folder on my computer, that was bursting with fun projects!<br /><br />Fast forward a few years. And I'm pregnant, and in <em><strong>"Craft Overload."</strong></em> Most woman, spend their 9 months of pregnancy, shopping, being a little nervous about their newborn, and just preparing. Me? Not so much! <em><strong>I was working 100MPH.</strong></em> Trying to get all my projects done. :)<br /><br /><a href="http://homemadebyjill.blogspot.com/2010/05/sock-animal-rattle-tutorial.html">This</a> happens to be one of those projects. <em><strong>I fell in love with it!</strong></em> The first time I seen it. 2 years ago, <a href="http://homemadebyjill.blogspot.com/">Jill</a> posted it. Since then, I've probably visited <a href="http://homemadebyjill.blogspot.com/2010/05/sock-animal-rattle-tutorial.html">this post</a>, 50 times. I'm not sure what it is. But something about <a href="http://homemadebyjill.blogspot.com/2010/05/sock-animal-rattle-tutorial.html">this picture</a>, calls my name!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKtTnuKgDit-tOg6S18RzYsXKPcS5xiNzGkNojdYD9w1N49mq4pB9aTE0xBGS03TufQDouJfpvyxrG1kn8aMsVA9wGujr9fuzjqK5VDcgWe0syvv9hKBeS63cM_jNcvU-V-4-TnrJ7QNU/s1600/sock+animal+rattle+tutorial+hbj.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 300px; height: 400px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729811274954881442" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKtTnuKgDit-tOg6S18RzYsXKPcS5xiNzGkNojdYD9w1N49mq4pB9aTE0xBGS03TufQDouJfpvyxrG1kn8aMsVA9wGujr9fuzjqK5VDcgWe0syvv9hKBeS63cM_jNcvU-V-4-TnrJ7QNU/s400/sock+animal+rattle+tutorial+hbj.jpg" /></a><br /><br />I started 2 little rattles. One for Miss B. The other for <a href="http://alicepspalace.blogspot.com/">Sofia</a>. <strong><em>And that blanket, I just adore it!</em></strong> I emailed <a href="http://homemadebyjill.blogspot.com/">Jill</a> a few times about it. But never got an answer. So I studied this picture. It looks like a blanket of single crochets. That's it! <strong><em>That color, is just perfect too!</em></strong><br /><br />Not long ago, Vanna's yarn was on sale at JoAnn's. And I bought a bunch of the pink. The perfect pink! <em><strong>I just knew, I'd need it soon! :)</strong></em> I'm going to start this blanket soon. I'm hoping, that this will be my project, for our upcoming trip. We're flying across country! <strong><em>I'm so giddy, just thinking about all this goodness!!</em></strong>Gabihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15485950396095908847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7621099102337660922.post-87663567178161668372012-04-16T13:04:00.003-06:002012-04-16T13:04:00.186-06:00Poppy Love!!Last week, when we went to <a href="http://sweetnightingalesing.blogspot.com/">Lola</a> and <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/SimpleGuyTalks">Guy</a>'s new house, I wanted to take them a small gift. But I had no clue what to take them! One, <a href="http://sweetnightingalesing.blogspot.com/">Lola</a> is the most creative person I know! She gives me 98% of my crafty, garden, cooking, baking, and fashion ideas. <strong>No lie!</strong><br /><br />I thought really hard. I asked my hubby. Her primo, and he had no clue! Then I remembered <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/poppy-flower-coasters">this pattern</a>. I'd seen it on <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/">Ravelry</a>. <em><strong>Years ago!</strong></em> I spent a long time, trying to find it. But I got lucky. :)<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4_SgouZSjWFnP179Bb8CdwQK71K-ZEgS_1ADYoiHJv0GDX2nSF7EKeVz65qGhDpoO_BM6MGaiD59Qx_mzvXwuvkgypJFjMXpBUHiWkYhlddRiZx326DN1iDQrq14OJxkeQm3q3_I3KjY/s1600/2980305450_eb6e3be44b_z.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 342px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729636578060339042" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4_SgouZSjWFnP179Bb8CdwQK71K-ZEgS_1ADYoiHJv0GDX2nSF7EKeVz65qGhDpoO_BM6MGaiD59Qx_mzvXwuvkgypJFjMXpBUHiWkYhlddRiZx326DN1iDQrq14OJxkeQm3q3_I3KjY/s400/2980305450_eb6e3be44b_z.jpg" /></a><br /><br />As I was crocheting one night, I remembered this Poppy fabric that I have. It's vintage. And I'd never found the right project for it. <em><strong>Now I had an idea...</strong></em><br /><br /><a href="http://sweetnightingalesing.blogspot.com/">Lola</a> collects aprons. Of all kinds. Her favorite being a "Cafe Apron." So I made her an apron. I made <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/poppy-flower-coasters">these</a>. But with a larger hook, so they'd be more like potholders. And we bought some poppies. <strong><em>Oh it was a cute little basket!</em></strong> Filled with one of our <a href="http://sweetnightingalesing.blogspot.com/">Prima</a>'s favorite flowers!<br /><br /><strong><em>She loved it!</em></strong> And <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/poppy-flower-coasters">this pattern</a>, made for some fun potholders. I think I'm going to make some for myself. And maybe we'll head back to the nursery. <strong><em>I'm wanting some poppies now too!</em></strong>Gabihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15485950396095908847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7621099102337660922.post-17694549928163284872012-04-13T21:38:00.006-06:002012-04-13T21:38:00.127-06:00Spring Pinks and GreensBy now, I'm sure that you all know about my <em><strong>LOVE</strong></em> of all things <a href="http://gabislove.blogspot.com/search/label/Red%20and%20Aqua">Aqua and Red</a>! :) It would surprise you, but not all of my home, is in this color palette. Only our Kitchen, my Craft Room, and Miss B's Nursery.<br /><br />Miss B for the most part, has been showered in this color palette. <em><strong>And it makes me smile.</strong></em> There is just something about it. I can't explain it! But when I saw <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/hexagon-how-to">this blanket</a>, in <em><strong><span style="color: rgb(255, 204, 204);">pinks</span></strong></em> and <em><strong><span style="color: rgb(51, 255, 51);">greens</span></strong></em>, <em><strong>I fell in L-O-V-E!!!!</strong></em><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYLjUa4fBduUdRcVhhVgfNI2wcc-B95FpUPnL5Vba5K5TlyDc0v7T2MjC-w3_3PMnRCyXT4Kd8IsWw_qCDdSVjuAc98RpMQDzwPLN1KQcay9lIytFK_SnpyBVbSqQMhpsT8VHQAna2XQs/s1600/4315896244_63644ac6ff_z.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729599672301062402" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYLjUa4fBduUdRcVhhVgfNI2wcc-B95FpUPnL5Vba5K5TlyDc0v7T2MjC-w3_3PMnRCyXT4Kd8IsWw_qCDdSVjuAc98RpMQDzwPLN1KQcay9lIytFK_SnpyBVbSqQMhpsT8VHQAna2XQs/s400/4315896244_63644ac6ff_z.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/hexagon-how-to">This</a> is my new project.

I felt that way on Easter. We spent Easter at <a href="http://sweetnightingalesing.blogspot.com/">Lola</a> and <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/SimpleGuyTalks">Guy</a>'s new home. Oh my goodness, it's beautiful! <strong><em>An actual tropical oasis in the desert!</em></strong> But really got me, were these beautiful flowers!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitpkvyztr4gGmTeIT4-CugYAvZ-hwUeANsVgf14qFX7HoRIyPtTBfmNimLYyTTPLH47CRMtcmlfCo7Cg21Lf6YK3XMseRl3ZYWyI5JsTAtXC2X1S3q8gjBD3O0mDsEpq95NJ2zbdUu2RM/s1600/381378a.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 353px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729529427181484834" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitpkvyztr4gGmTeIT4-CugYAvZ-hwUeANsVgf14qFX7HoRIyPtTBfmNimLYyTTPLH47CRMtcmlfCo7Cg21Lf6YK3XMseRl3ZYWyI5JsTAtXC2X1S3q8gjBD3O0mDsEpq95NJ2zbdUu2RM/s400/381378a.jpg" /></a><br /><br />They are <a href="http://www.whiteflowerfarm.com/381378-product.html">Casa Blanca Lilies</a>. And they surround the back of the house. <strong><em>Gorgeous!</em></strong> Breathtaking. <strong><em>And they smell delish!</em></strong> I asked <a href="http://sweetnightingalesing.blogspot.com/">Lola</a> about them. And she told me, that <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/BBCowboyFiddler">J</a> has the same lilies. Where have I been? After some digging, I found them <a href="http://www.whiteflowerfarm.com/381378-product.html">here</a>. The prices range from $1.90-2.40 a bulb. The catch is, you have to buy 12 bulbs at a time. For $29.00. I want them. <strong><em>So bad! </em></strong>I even told my hubby, that he could just get me 12 bulbs, for Mother's Day. No flowers needed. <strong><em>This would be the gift that keeps on giving!</em></strong> :)Gabihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15485950396095908847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7621099102337660922.post-65954909167217884702012-04-10T13:25:00.001-06:002012-04-10T13:25:00.376-06:00From Roots<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhktVp-X8Sq4h2CyNTCLndL4YE-jBpm8r-pcjnD9mnUrgwifPohzQE3O0cfm-tB63r8HB_gCEN8LVBkC71pd8I_ZACcV7p2BTQfCLnyKgbFd_B6ueyhonFdtkgmfZ1bIfy_hS42YUBmnqU/s1600/DSC_1067.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 268px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729654648771028050" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhktVp-X8Sq4h2CyNTCLndL4YE-jBpm8r-pcjnD9mnUrgwifPohzQE3O0cfm-tB63r8HB_gCEN8LVBkC71pd8I_ZACcV7p2BTQfCLnyKgbFd_B6ueyhonFdtkgmfZ1bIfy_hS42YUBmnqU/s400/DSC_1067.JPG" /></a><br /><br />Lately, I've been seeing picture, like this one, all over the internet! By now, I'm sure you know about my love of "Gardening." And how I just adore growing things. But when I saw people growing green onions, and lettuce, from roots....I stopped to read about it. Then I dug out some Mason Jars. Tonight, after dinner, I'm "starting" our Romaine lettuce.

I've always enjoyed Easter. The rebirth. Knowing that Jesus gave us everything. <strong><em>Including his love and life. </em></strong>With our daughter, it feels like we're experiencing everything, for the first time.<br /><br />See that cake? I found it, doing a little Google search. The minute I seen it, I knew I had to make it. Why? To take to <a href="http://sweetnightingalesing.blogspot.com/">Lola</a> and <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/SimpleGuyTalks">Guy</a>'s house. Today. After Mass.

They just come to me. They hit me, like a ton of bricks. Then my ideas, completely consume my brain. <strong><em>Do you ever get that way? </em></strong><br /><br />Never mind, that I'm nearly 6 months pregnant. All I can think about, is making candles. I think it all started, when I used to watch <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Charles">Port Charles</a>. Between, that was my favorite Soap! <strong><em>And I miss it a lot!!</em></strong> Ever since I seen <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rafe_and_Alison_Kovich">Alison</a> with her Candle Shop, I've wanted to make candles. <strong>I know, I'm nuts!!</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGj4wMCyFDT1WGrE7C9GfkoKScmQACst7lMVWWhzOev5Jfo_COL6b6e1qbj4EJqAia1FMUemu3VaTEt-_fJu9mB81IddIAhY9xCK1lSnMZaO9-nB8_CRI5eGI7Cd3h46dpnG6S8Kr_gBo/s1600/3candles.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 300px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729555870884158530" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGj4wMCyFDT1WGrE7C9GfkoKScmQACst7lMVWWhzOev5Jfo_COL6b6e1qbj4EJqAia1FMUemu3VaTEt-_fJu9mB81IddIAhY9xCK1lSnMZaO9-nB8_CRI5eGI7Cd3h46dpnG6S8Kr_gBo/s400/3candles.jpg" /></a><br /><br />Now with my pregnant belly, <strong><em>I want to be a Candle Maker.</em></strong> I'm nuts! I know it. But it just seems like a nice hobby. Something I'd really enjoy. <strong><em>I probably buy 4 candles a week!</em></strong> :) I'm trying really hard, to distract myself. With hobbies, that won't cause much harm to my tummy. Because hot wax, doesn't sound like the best idea right now....Gabihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15485950396095908847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7621099102337660922.post-84812586825028617112011-07-12T22:16:00.003-06:002012-04-09T21:34:11.888-06:00Spring Booties<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYE5N8CyRk1thI3uJxj3ESwh0M_EWET5SANHoHDnMRjyvhwB_L2nWIU-cJPVBl9DqyHeYnCGc_4EjQCHiTjvbZQx2b2Q3a4ZBPbO4D-bbCgCzsIxXBmhs4Idg43lbNhDF9OvMavoJ5Zxw/s1600/il_fullxfull_57065278_medium2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 400px; height: 383px; text-align: center; display: block; cursor: pointer;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5729607551420391890" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYE5N8CyRk1thI3uJxj3ESwh0M_EWET5SANHoHDnMRjyvhwB_L2nWIU-cJPVBl9DqyHeYnCGc_4EjQCHiTjvbZQx2b2Q3a4ZBPbO4D-bbCgCzsIxXBmhs4Idg43lbNhDF9OvMavoJ5Zxw/s400/il_fullxfull_57065278_medium2.jpg" /></a><br /><br />I'm starting my first pair of Baby Girl Booties!

And dug through my stash of cotton yarn. Which is not much at all. Note to self, stock up the next time <a href="www.hobbylobby.com/">Hobby Lobby</a> has a sale! But I'm in the middle of this hat. And I just started it. <em><strong>Talk about an easy pattern!!</strong></em> And I just LOVE the way it's coming out. When I finish with this on, I'm going to make another hat, in this exact color palette. It's just perfect for a little girl! <a href="http://thedaintydaisyblog.blogspot.com/">The Dainty Daisy</a>, is such a great blog too!!Gabihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15485950396095908847noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7621099102337660922.post-62282018903442379822011-07-01T08:57:00.007-06:002012-04-09T21:34:45.073-06:00Tiramisu Please!!In the last week, my pregnancy has really gotten real. <em><strong>Do you understand what I mean?</strong></em> It's like, finding out that we're having a <a href="http://gabislove.blogspot.com/2011/06/sweet-baby-cakes-love.html">Baby Girl</a>, just makes all of this real! <br /><br />One of the very first Baby blankets I ever saw, and wanted to make, was the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/tiramisu-baby-blanket">Tiramisu Baby Blanket</a>.

We've been watching our Baby Cake grow. We've been enjoying everything about my pregnancy. Cherish all our sweet pictures. Look forward to hearing, our Baby Cake's heartbeat.

With a trip to paradise. This is the last opportunity we are going to have, to go on a trip, before becoming parents. I'm really excited! We've been wanting to take a trip for a few years now. But we just couldn't seem to work it in. I'm so happy that my hubby planned this for us. We both need it. And I honestly can't wait! Our trip is also going to be a celebration for my recent graduation. Right now, life just feels perfect. Something that I couldn't have planned out better. See you when we get back from "Paradise!"Gabihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15485950396095908847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7621099102337660922.post-17906165811839454862011-05-23T00:00:00.001-06:002011-05-23T03:41:06.456-06:00Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">Yay</span>!
