I thought I would share with you what I am loving right now....
Springtime in my backyard
Our two little kitties enjoying the outdoors
And I also am pleased to announce the birth of my first Granddaughter, Caroline. Now after I found out I have to tell you I immediately starting scoping out dress patterns, she is only 10 days old but I have rediscovered my love of sewing.
So rushed out and bought these patterns
And this material
I already started on the white dress above in a white eyelet, I just have the hem and the zipper to add and after starting this dress I realized I should have started with something much easier to get warmed up. I had forgotten so much and worse I hardly had any of my old sewing supplies so had to go buy them. On top of that I lost my good sewing machine years ago and replaced it with a cheap one because I thought I only needed it for scrapbooking and card making and thus things are more of a challenge, heck. I can't even find my zipper foot for it so now I need to see if I can locate a replacement.
I also saw this adorable diaper cover on pintrest so you know I have to try my hand at it. I did purchase a ruffler foot and am seriously thinking of getting a serger for my birthday.
Well that's what's going on over my weekend, hope you enjoyed yours.
I'm envious of your blooming flowers, Leslie, we're having unseasonably cold temperatures with more snow on the way. Congratulations on the arrival of your granddaughter, the diaper cover you found looks darling!

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful photos, love seeing the blooms. We are still covered in ice. Your granddaughter is going to have the best wardrobe! Our mother always made us dresses with the eyelet fabric. Makes me nostalgic every time I see the fabric!
