How I Became Shared Jelly

When my husband and I first got married we used to get messages on our answering machine for "Shared" and "Jelly" instead of Jared and Shelly. The first time we chuckled a little over it and by the fourth or fifth time, we decided the name should stick somewhere. And so, I've been sharing jelly all over the internet since. Enjoy!

Warm Hat for Winter

Over the summer I made some cute little reversible hats for my baby girl. Now that it's getting a little cooler, I was thinking that she'd need something to keep her head warm.  If you visit craftstylish, you can see how to make your own pattern to make one for yourself.  For this one, I used fleece on the inside for extra warmth.
I started with my fleece and sewed the edges together.

Working around the hat, keep sewing the pieces together until you have all six together.
 Sew your last one back to the first one.  Then do the same for your next color.
Take your inside and outside and put them together.  Wrong sides together.

Pin the two together, turning the edges in for a hem.

Sew around the edges and your hat will be finished.

And the cute possibilities are endless!
