I have reached a new level of Domestic Neurosis.

My kids were playing out in the backyard in the 7 inches of snow we have today... having a blast but then Cyan came in crying that her hands were "freezing off".

I think I have made it to "sewing dork"... is there a avitar that supports sewing dork? I am offically nuts

those are really fun!

So great! You are no dork! My kids, and most of the kids I know, have mits made by me on I have a wonderful 3 piece pattern that is so easy. I love to give leather back of hand mits to people who ride a bike alot. Like college students. And I make wild 3 color ones for the homeless shelter. ( I like to see the kids with cool stuff)
You are no dork, cuz I refuse to be a dork!

Another sewing mama to the rescue! Your kids are lucky...you saved the day!

Those look great!

Nice quick fix! Another benifit to being a sewing mom!

How fun! Snow!

Are those pictures with your new camera? They turned out nice.

The mittens look great too.

Are those pictures with your new camera? They turned out nice.

Thanks for the commets everyone. The kids were sure pleased about it. They held up much better than I thought too. From the diapers I had when Cyan was a baby, I thought that the fleece would wick the water right into the liners (which were just cotton t shirt jersey) and they would be wet, but warmer so more than worth it, but... Alex came in yelling "My hands arn't wet at all mom!" lol... so I guess they were a bit cooler than I thought. :D
