I'm with Kristina...
Where's Molly!?
Probably unpacking and exploring Vermont country. (We want pictures!!!)
I feel a little like I'm "back in the saddle again". I've been doing a bit of sewing and it feels Goo-ood! The other day, Grant was outside with this adorable little bag. I asked Kristina if she made it and she said, "ya, it's a water bottle carrier" - or something to that extent. I then asked permission ;) to copy her, found a tutorial online and made a couple for my kiddos. I want one for me too now! (I'm sure I have some scraps I could make one out of.)
Here's a link to the tutorial I used.
I also made this little skirt for Jemma. The boys have ties out of the turquiose paisley print and so, with the left over scraps, a few other fabrics in my scrap box and a couple 99 cent fat quarters, I whipped it up for a grand total of approx. $3! Not bad!
I was really happy with the way it turned out, but the next time I make a "block scrap skirt" I'll make one change...the bottom row, hemmed, will be half the width it is now on this one (I guess I could shorten this one and have that problem fixed...pretty sure it's long enough).
And, finally, like Kristina, I made a shower gift for Jen's Twin Baby Boys. Just a set of flannel jammies and super simple appliqued onsies to match.
They kinda match Kristina's ADORABLE blankets!!!
Love it... all of it! So, when are you opening your etsy shop? You'd make a fortune! You are so talented. haha... 'my permission'? Your water bottle bags are awesome! I think I may have to remake mine. The skirt is adorable and I can't wait to see your matching brute at church! Okay, those pajama bottoms are probably the cutest pair I have ever seen. ya, they do match my blankets... and we didn't even plan that. I'm so happy you're crafting again. I don't know where you find the time, but I like seeing what you whip up!
