So, this week's Small Talk Six is six things you made that you are proud of. And I am so excited about this topic because I get to show of some of the very special things I have made. The first three were all made for Big Brother and the last three were all made for Big Sister and pretty soon I will have to get started on the ones for Little Sister. So, here they are....
First, are Big Brother's curtains. I cross-stitched the pictures in the middle of the valances and then sewed the curtains. They took a lot of time but not only do I love seeing them whenever I walk into the room but he knows I made them as I waited for him and that I thought and prayed about him with each and every stitch.

Next came his blanket. Again I cross stitched the Pooh pictures and then quilted those together with the fabric. He loves this blanket and even though it is a baby blanket and, obviously, way too small for him he still sleeps with it.
And lastly I latch hooked him a picture for his wall. I can feel that the time for this and his curtains to come down and it makes me a little sad but it is okay I am so glad that he had them and that I made them.
Then for Big Sister I made curtains as well. This time I thought a little further ahead and made them a little more grown up and simply quilted them together in colors that match her walls.
And then I made her a picture for the wall too. I could not find a latch hook so I cros stitched this one and had it custom framed. I think it came out really well. It may be my favorite, simply because it came out so well.
And the last one.... I am actually not going to tell you about (can you guess what it is) or show you pictures. Why? Because when I am finished with it (this week hopefully but more likely next week) I am going to post it for my tackle it Tuesday post. So, you will just have to come back and see what the final thing I made for Big Sister is. :)
Now, don't forget to go on over and see what other people are proud of at the new Mom Dot.
