Wow, I don't even know how I ended up with these two semi-decent photos. We were NOT having a good photo session when I took these. These pictures cost me a few chocolate chips. (yes, I'm not above bribery apparently. At least when I get desperate and frustrated) ANYways...I thought that the pillow applique I did for my sister's birthday would also … [Read more...]

I made this sweet little Black Apple Doll for Sadie's friend Payton's second birthday this week. Her dress fabric is fitting for the name of the doll pattern, huh? ;)It's been awhile since I made one, they're so fun and pretty easy.

Another tank top...are you sick of them yet? A little tunic top...a tad wide in the shoulders...next one I make will have to be a bit slimmer. I know, this girl has a ton of clothes, I just have a bunch of fabric that I want to use, so oh well! (Plus, I'm a bit addicted, if you haven't noticed) I love the little pockets. (Sadie filled them with … [Read more...]

90 minute shirt

I finally tried Dana from Made's 90 minute shirt tutorial this past weekend. Getting the pattern made was the hardest part...this brown one is the third attempt, which is why it's brown. I ran out of cuter knit colors. ;)I still think it's pretty charming, especially with the little flower applique I added to "girly' it up a bit. I was able to make … [Read more...]
