A Crafty Soiree #9

Hey Everyone! We've had quite a week here, I came down with the flu and was SICK! Yuck! Wouldn't you know it, just as I started feeling better...the hubster got sick. He even missed work and he NEVER stays home!

Now you know what's coming next...yep, now the kiddo is not feeling good either. I'm keeping my fingers crossed she's okay enough to get her preschool Halloween party on Friday, or there will be one very unhappy little four year old mooping around our house! So sad because she spent so long working on goodie bags for her classmates, and is really looking forward to handing them all out and wearing her costume to school. So keep your fingers crossed she gets better!

Last week I only made it around to a handful of your posts, and I'm very sorry about that crafty friends. It' s a real bummer, because I love visiting you and some of my long time bloggy friends linked up for the first time last week. With the holiday weekend, Halloween is a big deal with the preschool set around here, I may not make around to everyone this upcoming week either. I'll click over to see everyone, but I don't know if I'll be able to comment every where. Those really take up a long time, especially when you've got word verification on.

Thanks for linking up and have a fun filled Halloween:)

Okay enough about my week! Let's get to the fun and three pumpkin projects! I've done this yarn project in the spring for Easter, but never to make pumpkins like Naturally Educational did! I think I like it for fall even more!
Road Theory shared this cute pumpkin shirt, made extra special with ruffles! I love that they are also on the sleeves.
Our third pumpkin project is this card from Create with Joy. Isn't the pumpkin stamped on twill cool? I've never tried that before and now I really want to!
