			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m surprised I haven&#8217;t made these sooner xD But here they are! I made them just in time to celebrate my one year anniversary (Dec 24th) of watching both movies back to back and going wild over them. </p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve never heard of it, here&#8217;s the summary from <strong><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boondock_Saints">Wikipedia listing</a></strong>: &#8220;<em>The Boondock Saints is a 1999 American action film written and directed by Troy Duffy. The film stars Sean Patrick Flanery and Norman Reedus as Irish fraternal twins, Connor and Murphy MacManus, who become vigilantes after killing two members of the Russian Mafia in self-defense. After both experience an epiphany, the brothers, together with their friend (David Della Rocco), set out to rid their home city of Boston, Massachusetts of crime and evil; all the while being pursued by FBI Special Agent Paul Smecker (Willem Dafoe).</em>&#8221;</p>
<p>So, using a combination of patterns (trying to add a medium size option plush for my shop), I came up with a good balance ^^ They&#8217;re about 13&#8243;&#8230; a vast difference from the 22&#8243; tall pattern I almost decided on xD<br />

Rosary is made from pom-poms strung with embroidery thread. Cross has blanket stitch detail. </p>

I drew up their face and ironed them on ^^ The facial hair detail was crazy to do ^^;;;</p>

Peacoats are removeable~</p>

Had to add the tattoos that would be visible :)</p>

The flap closes down and secures with velcro. The inside is lined with padded quilting fabric.</p>

This is a Scooby Doo themed blanket and pillow set for my niece. I asked my sis what kind of edging she&#8217;d like for the blanket, and she said her daughter would like the fringe. It&#8217;s my first time making the &#8220;no sew&#8221; blanket, so it was fun try try something new :)<br />

<img class="alignnone" src="http://www.ambitiouslove.net/blog/img/2011/12dec/121111/kite1.jpg" title="Gift Post: Family" alt="kite1 Gift Post: Family" /><br />
For my youngest niece, it was suggested I make some girly stuff for her :) I previously painted a mural of a tree, owl, and flowers in their bedroom. So I made a little kite to how some cute hair accessories :)</p>

I referenced a tutorial from <strong><a href="http://www.rufflesandstuff.com/">Ruffles and Stuff</a></strong>, but I sewed the kite.</p>
