Mother's Day Project

Mother's Day . . . I've crossed over to the other side and am now part of the "mommy" club. It is exciting to experience Mother's Day with fresh eyes and to know that it is a day for me! Although I really still think of my mother, my mother in law, grandmas, aunts and friends that are all mothers first. I kinda think they are the real mothers - and some how I just snuck into their club. I like it here in the mommy clubhouse though - so I think I will stay. It is my wonderful baby boy that inspires me to be a better mother each and every day! I love you Brylin!

Anyway on to the crafting . . . so I thought it only appropriate that I share my Mother Day adventures with you. When I think of a mother I always think of my mom's (and my mother in law's) baking . . . and I figure every mother has to bake sometime. Yes even you Tracy!! So I made little oven mitts. Here is a link to the tutorial I found on The Idea Room. I thought they were just so cute. Mine are well . . . cute from a distance. If you look closely at the stitching you would think I was trying to assassinate the oven mitts with a needle and black thread. Oh well. I kinda feel like a little kid bringing home my craft from school.

Here are some pictures:

I made 4 pairs - for 4 lovely moms

Then I added a few cookie and muffin recipes:

I sure had fun making these and have a pair started for myself.
