SuperMan Cape

I threw two of these together, last night and this morning, for the boys.  The stitching isn’t the greatest, BUT it will hold.  🙂  I will work on the prettiness, later!

Two Pieces of fabric.  (Super hero of your choice, and a complementing color.

Sew three sides together INSIDE OUT.

Pull the fabric out so that it is back the correct way (with stitches on the inside).

Cut, iron, and sew the neck-tie piece.  You will also turn this outside out when you are down (so the stitches are on the inside).

Iron a hem and collar for the neck.

Sew the collar down, leaving room for the neck-tie piece to be slid through.

Use a safety pin to pull the tie through the hole.

AND

Voila!  SuperMan (or whomever YOU want) cape!

Here’s the video I used for my inspiration.  She may explain it better.  😉

Newest Project: Baby Gifts

While I missed BOTH of these showers, I am hoping THESE will help make up for my absence…  😉

 

Obviously, one boy and one girl.

 

Baby Boy’s is what I call the “How to Start Your Own Baby” option.  Just about everything in there, EXCEPT the baby.   😉 

The little girl one is the “Sweet Starter”.  😉  It may look small, but it PACKED with baby necessities.  AND it comes with a, not yet finish, crocheted blanket! 

Yes, I JUST came up with those names!  😉  I LOVE babies!!!  Now that mine aren’t “babies” anymore I THOROUGHLY enjoy making gifts for others!!!  🙂

Did you miss me!!?!

I know you have all been wondering…  “Where did she GO!!!”   😉

My sweet baby boy turned two this week!!  SO, between the actual birthday and his party, I’ve been a busy little bee!!!

He had a GREAT birthday, and he had a GREAT party!

I wanted to share some party photos because I am SO proud of my work!  (lol)  I did almost ALL the decorations with construction paper!!  Do you realize how cheap that was!!!  But, Oh so CUTE!!  😉

Birthday Cake.  Obviously NOT construction paper. 😉  Airplanes was our theme!  🙂

Airplanes and Clouds, OH MY!  😉  CArter’s TWO!!

Popsicle sticks and clothes pins…then paint.   I made a few extra and used them for craft time, too.

The kids LOVED painting them!!  The little kids, like Carter himself, got paper airplanes to put STICKERS on!

Happy Birthday Little Buddy!
