Things I make (or, occasionally, show other people how to make). Want me to make you something? I'll need you to pay for materials and (if applicable) shipping. And I usually have a long list of projects in progress, so if you need it in a hurry, you're better off asking someone else. Still want to chat about a project? Cool! Email me at cheekysu AT gmail DOT com, with a subject line that clearly indicates that you aren't spam.

Baby blanket. 2018. The rare gift for a second baby. |
|
A peppermint wreath in progress... |
|
And the finished article. |
|
Hand-decorated slipper socks, which were a Sunday School craft to go with a Tabitha lesson.
These are the ones the kids made. |
|
The cotton bole angel choir from a 2009 Christmas tea. |
|
Angel ornament, from a 2008 (I think?) Christmas tea. |

Baby blanket. IIRC, this one was for one of my baby cousins. |
|
Baby blanket, for a first kid of some friends. I loved this yarn but have never found it since. |
|
A jar of (really good) hot chocolate mix. I used to give these as gifts, but stopped when I realised, as I visited the recipients at other times, that they tend to sit unopened on people's kitchen counters for years. Now I only make them upon request. |

These are about lap blanket size. Made for a couple of kids at church in 2007. Little sister was pretty seriously ill and I wanted to make her something, but didn't want to leave out big brother. So I made two. If you've ever heard me speak at any kind of devotional or similar service, there's a good chance you've heard me talk about the story of these blankets. I have some pretty good stories from this adventure, like this one. |

Another baby blanket, made with the leftover material from the lap blanket above. Or it may have been the other way around. For some friends' first baby (I have a habit of making things for a first kid and then moving away before any subsequent kids make an appearance. Sorry, every younger sibling I know.)

Baby blanket. This one was for a one and only, so no younger kids to be offended. |
