Week 1 (July 1-7): Babies, Kids, and Teens
Week 2 (July 8-14): Women
Week 3 (July 15-21): Gifts for Anyone
Week 4 (July 22-28): Home
Week 5 (July 29-31): Pets

Top 50 Posts from 12 Years of 5 Little Monsters

 It has been 12 years since I started 5 Little Monsters, technically my very first post was at the end of June, but it was pretty much just a post to say, "I'm starting a blog" without really having any more to it than that. The first project post I shared was on July 3, and the first pattern a week or two after that. So it was 12 years ago this month that I first shared my projects and patterns with the internet. I definitely couldn't have imagined at that time what this blog would become for me. 

July Bear of the Month- Little Liberty Bear

July 1st means it is time for the next Bear of the Month. In the United States I feel like the month of July is immediately associated with the 4th of July, so I felt like I had to do a bear that was in some way related to the 4th of July or the USA in some way. The bear I ended up making is the Little Liberty Bear.
