Skinny Scarf

One of my absolute favorite blogs to visit is Joy's Hope. She recently did a tutorial for the skinny scarf which can be found here.This link is for all posts pertaining to the scarf along, so scroll down to the bottom the last post is actually the first and enjoy making some skinny scarves!

I thought the scarf was so cute, fun and funky that it would be perfect for my 9 year old Birthday girl and her friends. So I made one that is slightly smaller using 7 fat quarters instead of 9, and instead of using all different one's I used two of each color, except my odd one.

Here it is being modeled by her adorable 18 month old sister. Her Birthday isn't till tomorrow so she doesn't get to see it till then.



The four scarves, all using same material only in a different order.

11 days late, or 354 days early...


I have not had much crafting time this last year, but I was finally able to take the time to make this cute advent calendar for our family yesterday. I am happy to have this cute decoration done for next year.
