That time of year again…

It’s that time of year again…. When I go crazy trying to finish the gifts I’m making for the Illini ladies swim team for the Big 10’s.    This year I decided on making them mittens from recycled sweaters.  So I spent my summer and fall searching garage sales and Goodwill for cute sweaters to use. 

This is what 39 pair of recycled sweater mittens looks like.  I hope they like them.  They were fun to make and Caitlin helped me A TON by helping cut the liners during Christmas break.  Thanks Cait!

Two years ago I made the girls these cute “ugly dolls”.  And last year I made them these personalized recycled tee-shirt bags.  What will I do now that she is graduating?
