Banana Split

We have something new that we love.  Banana fiber yarn.  Banana fiber is super soft yet durable, and a great renewable resource.   You will not believe how soft this and how much fun you will have when you wear it.

And look how cute it looks from the back

This capelet is available in

Bluebonnet Smile's Etsy Shop

Tiara and a Tutu

We have added more colors for our Tiara and Tutu sets.  They are so darling.  Won't that new little princess in your life be beautiful in her first photo with this on?  We cannot decide which is our favorite.  What do you think?

For every little Princess

If you are in need of that perfect baby gift, look at what we have now.  Crochet crowns and matching diaper covers.  Perfect for that first photo shoot or just playing baby dress up.  We have them in multiple colors with additional colors coming soon.  Check out Bluebonnet Smile's Etsy shop and see what else we have been working on.

Just for us

Believe it or not every now and then we take a bit of time to do something just for us.  We have a trash to treasure project going on right now, and you can see what we are up to by going to our blog La Sonrisa and look around.  We will have details of what we did when everything is complete. Go take a look, we think you will like it.

Mobius Scarf

We know this scarf is call a mobius, we know what it looks like, but what is the true definition of a mobius.  

Mobius strip: A mathematical object, or a physical representation of it, which is a two-dimensional sheet with only one surface. It is constructed or visualized as a rectangle, one end of which is held fixed while the opposite end is twisted through a 180 degree angle and joined to the fixed end. It is a two-dimensional object that can only exist in a three-dimensional space.

Don't you like that last sentence - a two-dimensional object that can only exist in a three-dimensional space.  

Whoever wrote this knows nothing about yarn and crochet.  We can make it however we want in any dimension.

These scarf/wraps are crochet by Bluebonnet Smile of reclaimed Sari Silk yarn made by women in India and Nepal. By using this yarn, Bluebonnet Smile is helping provide income to poverty stricken women in these countries.

Look at the beautiful colors we have in our shop with more to come.  Head on over to Bluebonnet Smile's ETSY shop and check them out, they are ready to ship.

Heading to the Barn Sale

We are on our last big push before heading to Gonzales this weekend for the Barn Sale.  The oilcloth aprons are all packed with care.  The hangin' lights are all ready to shine.  Barbed wire balls are tied up tight.  We had one more thing to do, can you guess what it is? 

Here is a Clue.

Come on out to the sale to see what it is?

This is how to decorate your tree

Don 't you wish you had a tree like this in your front yard?  These barbed wire balls will be ready for you to take home with you from the Barn Sale in Gonzales on November 2 and 3.  Imagine them with twinkle lights.

The apron parade continues

We are not sure what to call this one, but we know we love it.  Lots of flowers, lots of color, what is not to love?  Come see us at the Barn Sale on November 2 and 3 in Gonzales, Texas.

Great friends do great things

I have a great friend who is so very smart and crafty.  She came to the rescue and helped me design and create new business cards.  Just in time for the Barn Sale.  Aren't they great.  Come to Gonzales, Texas on November 2 and 3 and see all the great things at The Girls at Rusted Gingham's Barn Sale.  You can see us in booth C9 and TxBluiz Photography right next door.  You will love her work.

Connect the dots

Remember when you finally caught on to what you were supposed to do when your teacher gave you a worksheet to connect the dots?  For some reason, this apron made me think of those days.  How much simpler they were than today.  So for now let's all just CONNECT THE DOTS!

Come see me in person at The Girls at Rusted Gingham Barn Sale November 2 and 3, in Gonzales, TX.

Diet Cherry Limeade

There it was, in the middle of the night.  That idea that wakes you up and doesn't let you go back to sleep until you note it.  Diet Cherry Limeade, my favorite Sonic drink, and the perfect name for today's great oilcloth apron.  What do you think?
