She LOVES it!

Kaytlin could not wait for me to finish this skirt! I saw this on Everyday Choas' blog and just had to run out & get some fabric to make it! Her directions were very easy to follow. Kaytlin was not in the "posing mood" today, so I wasn't able to get any good pictures of the skirt on her.
But, here it is:

Really??

It's been since December since I've made an outfit? THAT'S CRAZY!

Ok, the history behind this dress starts in Columbus, GA of all places. Jeff had an AFLAC class to go to so my friend brought me to a sewing store that I had never been to! I LOVED IT! I found this pattern there.... Olive Ann Designs & and some cute Michael Miller fabric. It was so easy to make! It look me longer to cut out the pattern that it did to finish the dress! I'm going to make the shirt next... it is too cute.

Here's the dress...

Making Good Use of my Scraps

Here a cute little skirt I made for Kaytlin using my scraps! I'm so thrifty sometimes I can't believe it myself. I found the FREE directions from Two Little Banshees. It was way too easy. I think I'm going to make a few more...

Drum Roll Please......


Well, here it is! My toughest project yet, but I will be making another one, I have already purchased the fabric :) Enjoy!

The Ruffle Sleeve

The Only problem I ran into making this jacket was the ruffle sleeve. The first ones I made were too short, I had to adjust the pattern a little and add a couple inches. They were a lot easier to make the second time around!

I'm in heaven!

Check out this website I found!

I could look at fabric on this page ALL DAY LONG!

Hopefully today I will get to upload my fall jacket I made for myself. It's done, I just need someone to snap the picture!

There's a first time for everything...

I have decided to try my hand at sewing....again. I sewed a couple things back in the day but wasn't really all that interested in it back then. Needless to say, I am interested in it now and can't stop thinking about the next project at hand.


With that said, here are my latest creations. A romper for my son, and a jumper & shirt for my daughter.



 


I have also been sewing some baby things as well.



Security blanket



Burp rags 

And a purse for my daughter made of an old pair of her bluejeans.
 

 

Now, time to start my next project. I think I will make myself a fall jacket......
