Toddler Backpack

It is much cuter in person than in these pictures and I LOVE this pattern!! I gave this one to Ainsley since she is having a ladybug birthday party. I have another one all cut out and ready to make for Charlotte. Hopefully I will get it done before she is too big for it.

Fat Kitty

Charlotte loves her "Fat Kitty" and "Little Bird"! They are made of felt and I just embroidered them. They are even cuter in person! You can buy the pattern HERE!

Ms. Molly Dress

I have finally been sewing again!!! I bought this pattern from thehandmadedress.net and I think it is SO cute. It is called "Ms.Molly" and it is pretty simple to make, but still looks like you put some effort into it :)
Anyway, it was good to get something crossed off my list before VBS starts next week.... the only thing is that OF COURSE it is way TOO BIG. It seems like I have a closet full of stuff that just doesn't fit yet. I would say that 85% of the things I have made are just too dang big. I use the right measurements and then go down a size and they are still too big. Oh well, she will have a nice wardrobe for next Spring all lined up.

So Sad

I haven't updated here in forever!! I really just haven't had much sewing time lately! Hopefully I will be back to work next week and have some new stuff to post!

Some baby skirts

Here are a couple of skirts for Charlotte.

The green one is from a pattern I bought and it is really cute and twirly when it is on. The pink one is self-drafted and is super cute as well- I think I might add some pockets or trim or something because I do think it looks a little plain.

"Candy" Pants

These are from the Ottobre magazine. These are actually influenced by the Memphis game the other night, I cut them out during the game instead of watching. I was hoping cutting out blue&white pants would help them win...

They are pretty cute on ( I think they are supposed to be capri pants though) and should be comfortable well into the summer since they are so thin.

I used my new Ruffler foot to do the gathers at the bottom- that thing is awesome for making things even and it is so easy I can't stand that I lived without it!

You can see daddy's foot there because I couldn't get her to stand still long enough to take the picture without some assistance.

Pillowcase Dress

I am still waiting on my serger, it should be here Wednesday night!
In the meantime I tried out a pillowcase dress... I haven't trimmed the ribbons on the shoulders because I was thinking about changing them out.

I think I was subconsciously influenced by all the blue and white out there for the Tigers.

My baby model was a little uncooperative, and I didn't want to have to put her jeans back on, so I left them underneath. I actually think they are kinda cute with it though.

ETA: I don't know why the pictures seem so blurry. Could be photobucket?
