BUTTONS!!!

Since starting on the BICO's I have a new found love for buttons. yay for buttons. here are few I have gotten so far.




Baby blanket in my thought process

My friend is pregnant and I am gonna make her this blanket http://rosylittlethings.typepad.com/posie_gets_cozy/2007/04/free_pattern.html
it looks soo sweet, I just have to wait about 18 weeks to find out what color palette I will be using. I think I might put a Myrtle the Turtle appliqué on there just for fun. or maybe a star. She will also be getting a BICO in the gender colors of her choice. all this baby stuff is great!!!

My next 2 BICO's

these are the makings of my next 2 BICOS which will be going to a dear friend for her daughter.

Old skool stickers.

So while perusing the Hello Kitty store a few days ago I came across these little sticker books. I just love them they remind me of my childhood. I was a product of the 80's when Hello Kitty and all her Sanrio friends splashed onto the scene. So I bought me about 4 sticker books. Chi Chai Monchan is still my favorite monkey. so enjoy some nostalgia.
