Adding a Little Fun!

This Christmas my dear friend and I decided that we would attempt to try something a little different. On my part, I just did the same thing I always do, Tartans. On Chris's side she branched out and I think it really paid off!
This is a baby blanket size of the Giggles Tartan.
Chris made these fun little butterflies. It looks amazing and her daughter Sammy loves it!

This is the Elorna Tartan Pattern. As you can see she loves it!
I think Chris and I will be working together in the future! These little bugs turned out so cute and fun, and they are great for kids!!!

My New Project

A few weeks ago a woman from my church sent me a story about the school she works for. The story was about these children who were freezing out on the playground, pulling their arms into their shirts to try and keep warm. Most of them come from homes that do not have the funds to dress these poor little kids for the winter. Myself, along with many of my friends have decided to start a new side project! We will be knitting , weaving, and crocheting hats, scarves and any other warm items we can to send to school around the USA. Please visit the blog http://chillychillins.blogspot.com We will be updating it with photos of the items, schools we have chosen and members as we grow in the fight to supply as many children across the country with much needed warmth for this upcoming winter!
