Snow mittens ala val
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".


So I made them both lined fleece mitts. lol...


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

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!

How fun! Snow!

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

The mittens look great too.

YES! Arn't they great! I have been SO camera happy since I got it on Monday. Here is another thread of awsome pictures taken by ME! *glee*

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.
