WATERMELON LONGIES!
Prepare yourself for CUTENESS! aren’t they RIDICULOUSLY awesome?!?!?!?I’m sooooooo stoked that they came out just as I imagined them!they’re a little big/long, but, as they’re wool, I made them big so they’d fit in the winter… I added the heart to the front, like Raggedy Ann had… (since the pattern I used as a starting point was Budgie Bloomers, which is inspired by Raggedy Ann’s clothes….) the rest of the front is plain….I’M IN...
Read Moretrying to get a good shot…
I made this dress well over a year ago… maybe even while I was still preggers… I think I photographed it when I made it, but now that its ON my daughter, I’d love a pic… of course, getting a 21month old to POSE is NOT going to happen…so here she was climbing a fence and here she is looking for snails in a neighbor’s yard and here she (and D, also in homemade head to toe) is watching a peacock run past… (visible if you enlarge the...

I’m working my way through a ton of tute/patterns online right now, trying to figure out exactly what I want… This came out pretty cute, if I do say so myself… of course, the novelty print (which is OBVI from Momen+), helps a great deal… I LOVE the little mushrooms! the inside holds lips of paper on the left, and a notepad on the right… what notepad is so special as to deserve a fancy notepad holder thing-y? tada! C sat down and made my daily to-do list super pretty! i’ve been using an icky Word table that I made up a few months ago, so for our...
Read Morebaby quilts for a friend’s twins…
tada!here’s the finished product… a friend from when I did Stroller Strides just had twins, and to celebrate their first 100 days (a Korean tradition?), they had a lovely little party… I made these coordinated blankets for the little ones… blue for Bennet pink for Brooke…. I had the ruffle fabric and the minkee backing in my stash already, so all I had to do was get coordinating B&W fabric for the top…. C did the lettering design for me, so then it was just a matter of blanket stitching all the letters down, using my ruffle foot to attach them, and...
