Making Friends…

By 3 Comments

I know, I’ve been gone awhile….

Did you miss me?

Actually, I’ve been off making some NEW friends

(Don’t be jealous)

If fact, I’d like to introduce you to some of my newest playmates:

This is little Timmy

He is the adorable boy that caught my attention at the bookstore:

Timmy is a very sweet boy, and he offered to share his toys with me:

Then he showed me his Brand New playgroup shoes:

And this is Simon, he is still learning how to share:

I think we are all going to be great friends!

We can play together on the Playground

Explore the woods together:

And spend the rest of our time being silly and goofing off.

We’ll be spending quite a bit of time together over the next month,
so I might not have as much time to spend here with you,

but don’t worry we can all play together soon!

;)

Sewing Fall Skirts

By 6 Comments

I have been busy sewing this week.

(If you count ripping seams and restarting project mistakes as sewing)

I do.

And all the ripping and tearing has been worth it because Sissy now has THREE skirts that go past her little knobby knees.

First remember, this green flannel skirt with a zipper:

Lime Hunter Brushed Plaid

Second there was this disaster of a craft fail:

That I cut up, ripped apart and turned into this adorable skirt:

With matching Scarf and Headband no less:

And finally (my favorite one!!):

Owl Dot Print Courduroy
Sew Classic Courduroy

I used my ruffler foot to make the cute little ribbon for this skirt.

The bottom edge flairs out just a little bit…so cute!:

Course I had to make a matching scarf for this one too.

So glad to be done with Sissy’s stuff….now moving on to the Boys!

(btw: Scarves are super easy long rectangles with a fleece side and a courderoy side!! The headbands are from a free online pattern (which I can’t find) but do a search and you’ll find a zillion ways to make them! These are a great way to use up scraps and get a polished “Gymboree” look!)
