 This type of project has been on my "Want To Do" list for quite some time! I saw a great deal on some pool noodles at my local grocery store and already had the yarn I wanted to use. This non-slip Lightsaber Hilt pattern makes for soft play for the Jedis and Siths in your life. My kids loved whacking each other without any tears so I'd say this project was a win!

 Watching 10 hours of General Conference was good to me! I stitched during and between sessions while writing out my pattern. I favored an all-around softer version with no button eyes for the cuddles and to save myself from having to re-snap them back together due to little boys undoing them on the daily. He's exactly how I envisioned and I love him.

I've made these for me, my best friend, my neighbor, and others who wanted something fun as they became Moms for the first time. Pattern: Fleece Fun About 3 years ago, Tim and I participated in a craft Saturday through our church. We stationed ourselves at the table with the over-sized mugs. We had bought 4 mugs but only had time to complete one a piece. They gave us special markers with ink that would become permanent once the mugs were baked in the oven. Once the ink sets overnight, you bake them in the oven at 375° for 40 minutes. My mug was a cityscape with a Batman signal peeking out. Tim's mug has our favorite Law of the Sea rules from The Lego Movie on it - "Never put your rear end on a pirate's face" & "Never release a kraken". I'd say, about 3 years of use and dishwasher cleanings, the artwork has held up pretty well with very minor, minor flaking. In order to finish our other two mugs, we went to Hobby Lobby and bought more of the glass paint markers. Life happened and we never got around to it. Two kids later, here we are finishing them and starting on our regular sized mugs. We found some designs that we liked, drew them on the mugs with pencil, and then traced the pencil with the markers. My last over-sized mug: Harry Potter themed with the grim made of tea leaves inside, mischief managed and the deathly hallows on the outside. Tim's last over-sized mug: The Green Dragon pub sign from The Lord of the Rings. I started a smaller mug and made it about Jigglypuff singing Snorlax to sleep, which isn't that hard to do anyway.
