Kid Wonder Woman Finger Knits

Untitled
^this is my arm knitting I tried it but it did not work it was to thin but I thought it was FAT but one strand was not FAT enough. It needed two strands.
Untitled
this is my finger knitting it did work I used the FAT yarn  this is when I was halfway done. ^I was tired  of all my work even though it was two days.

This is a picture of when I was done with my scarf. This is the second scarf I have made. I like this one better than the first one because it is fatter and it is more tight.
Untitled
I chose this yarn at Hobby Lobby. It is from Red Heart brand yarns. Hobby Lobby has lots of beautiful yarns. I chose this one because I like pink and lots of different colors. I think it looks nice.

Untitled
This is the first scarf I finger knitted. It is nice but a little loose. I used a skinnier yarn so I think that's why it is so loose.

This pose is from Pocahontas.

It took me one afternoon to make this pink pink one. I was excited to learn how to finger knit. It is easy. One last picture of me just for fun!
Untitled
This is what my scarf looks like when it is spread out.
Untitled
When you are done finger knitting a really, really long snake you loop it up to make the scarf. When you spread the loops out it looks like a butterfly.
Untitled
I made it look like a smiley face because I love when people are happy.

Broncos Sewer

THIS IS MY UNCLE SCOTT'S QUILT I AM WORKING ON! I am on my second  part.                
Untitled
This is my quilt book. This is where I got my design there are lots of designs in this book. My mom's cousin Emily gave me this quilt book. She is a sewer too.
Untitled
I am sewing this pattern called The Bug Quilt. I am not doing bugs because my Uncle Scott likes the Broncos so I am using Broncos and football fabric,
Untitled
Some squares have Broncos in the middle and some squares have footballs in the middle. All of them need two short rectangles on the sides. That's the first part and I have done all of them.
Untitled
After I sewed on all the short sides I had to iron them open. You can see how there are footballs in the middle on this one.
Untitled
Now that all the short sides are sewn on I have to sew long ones on. I still have a lot of these to do. After they are all done I have to sew all the squares together to make the quilt top.

Quilts for my Brothers

This is my quilt. I made it for Mark, my baby brother. It was my 100 day project for first grade. I had to bring in a project that used 100 pieces. This heart quilt has 100 squares.
These are fabrics that I liked and picked out at the quilt store. I felt so HAPPY for all the WORK! I did. My hands hurt bad.
Untitled
I sewed all the squares by myself and did most of the quilting by myself. My mom helped a little with the quilting and I finished it with the binding. My teacher loved my quilt I got to share my quilt before everybody. Just like I said my hands hurt and I was sooooo HAPPY!
Untitled
It is a little quilt.
I made a bigger blanket for my medium brother Kent. I just tied it. Me and my mom cut it. I felt FABULOUS!
Untitled

My family likes the Colorado Rockies, they are a baseball team that play near us. So I used Colorado Rockies fabric and matching baseball fabric to make this tie-blanket.
Untitled
This is what the knots look like.
Untitled
I like making things for my family. Right now I am working on a quilt for my Uncle Scott. Hopefully I will be able to share it soon. I can't sew as much because, I have school and entrain  MARK the cute baby.
