?



In my spare time today I made Liv a skirt. I can't decide why I am not pleased. Does it need little circle pockets in the contrasting fabric?

Easter Dresses

I am still making Maddy's patchwork skirt, I had to go get more charm squares today...
So, I worked on Maddy's top. It was a little slow going and I am not sure I like the outcome..

I just need to add straps and it will be finished

Do you think I should add two rounded pockets in the bodice material? And should I add halter straps or regular straps?

Sewing Junkies Coolest Blog Ever

Guess What my spring quilt is going to look like?



What can I paint this color? Maybe my dining room table, which is now my new sewing room...?


Ok, I got tired of all the pastel pink...so we are going purple for a while

My patchwork skirt from SCRATCH

Sewing...Sewing...Sewing




I finished Liv's Birthday dress. It turned out so cute, as long as you don't look at my button holes. I spent 2 hours today at Joanns. They have all their pattenrs 40% off or Simplicity 5 for 5.00. I think the sale runs through the weekend. Tomorrow Liv is having her school Birthday party, so 40 cupcakes by tea party time~~ugh... it's hard to be super mom =)

Spring Wardrobe






As many of you know, I LOVE handmade expensive ebay dresses. Well this year I have decided to try my hand at making my childrens spring dress clothes. So, here was my first attempt at a sundress I have yet to make the gauchos that go under them. And I have to pull out a basting stitch in the ruffle but otherwise it is DONE!! I purchased this pattern as an ebook that had detailed pictured step by step instructions. youcanmakethis.com check it out

Guess What I Just Whipped Up for Church Tomorrow

A strip skirt!!





And it only took me 3+ hours, and almost cost Liv her foot. Okay kiddies there is a reason parents do not allow you to walk with scissors. See pics below






It was only a gash on the top of her foot, but it required an ace wrap to convince her to let ups put a band aid on it. It is hilarious to see her dad have to carry her from room to room. Long live the drama queen!
