I'm still in a knitting frenzy, though I have one piece to go before I plan to switch back to sewing. In the meantime, it's time to think about Valentine's crafts for myself and the kiddo.
SuperMom has a great tutorial for making see-through Valentine's. Two options for changing- make them out of gauzy fabric that has to be cut to open, and I wonder if it's possible to simply iron the edges of the wax paper version.
We like to use our heart shaped silicone ice cube mold to make red glittery heart soaps. You can do it with crayons too.
I really like these hair clips
These conversation hearts would make great lavender sachets
We don't have any special plans (yet), and I'm not that great at sewing (obviously), but I recently found Dress a Day and am thinking about giving the whole dress remake thing a shot; maybe I'll end up with a cute dress for Vday. Maybe with a heart cutout in the back.
A quick Ravelry search brings up loads of Valentine-themed fiber arts. Then again, I might not be done knitting just yet...

Recouperating
That was a bumpy 6 months! I'm finally starting to recuperate, by which I mean that I have some free time and am using it. Mostly to craft....
To that end, I welcome you to look me up on Ravelry (Flaming Maiden). See you there!
