Owls for Mila. My friend Lilly, mother of Kyle, tagged herself on all of Kyle’s owl pictures on Facebook. When her friend Valeria saw the mobile, she wanted me to make one for her daughter, Mila. Communicating by e-mail, Valeria sent me some pictures for reference, showing me the bedding she wanted to put in Mila’s nursery and some owls she had already bought to match. I loved what Valeria had planned for Mila’s nursery. I took cues from the vibrant colors of the bedding and plush toys in order to add my own twists to the owl mobile for Mila. Valeria was kind enough to send me pictures of Mila’s finished nursery. Thanks again for joining me this week! Crocheted Valentine Cards.

Photo: Linda Permann Japanese Tawashi, or dish scrubbies, have become popular crochet (and knit) items over the past few years, perhaps because they are small, cute, and useful. After my crafting session, I put the tawashi to use straight away on the dishes and found it especially good for bowls and glasses because of its flexibility (I like to fold it over the edges and clean the outside and inside at once).
