Today I had a pattern taped to the sliding glass door so I could trace it and my daughter ran over wanting to “help”. I gave her her own piece of paper, taped it to the door, et voilà*! An entertained kid.
Sometimes they’re so easy. (bonus: 2 handmade things in this picture! 3 if you count my daughter. I made that dress 1 1/2 years ago and it still fits her, and I made that black apple doll when she was 1. I love that she still enjoys them both.)
And where have I been lately, you wonder? Or maybe you don’t. Did you notice I’ve been quiet lately? Because I have. But my family will assure you that I’ve been even more quiet on my personal blog that has recently slipped from 3 posts a week to 3 posts a month. To everything there is a season….
Anyway, I haven’t been slacking off. I’ve just been working on a lot of “mandatory” sewing projects that I can’t show you yet. Here’s proof.
So, blog posts are forthcoming. You know, in the future. (no guarantees on my personal blog, mom)
Adorable! (and love the dress!)
Well, this sounds exciting! Can’t wait to hear what you’ve got going on!
The dress is very cute. Jennifer made Kelly a Sophie bag out of that same fabric….yummy!
Too cute! I love her dress! I’m assuming you made it…did you use a pattern?
ahh love that. too cute. and love the nesting doll dress-Sadie loves the one my Grandma has so I’ve been flirting with buying some fabric like that! and hey-feel free to post your vintage dress-I would LOVE seeing it up here! If you want to, ya know.
Ok, which book/magazine/tv show are you going to be on??!?!!
I heart that fabric! I made some mini-stuffed dolls out of it. Matryoshka are my BFF.
I’m 36 years old, and I would totally wear the outfit your daughter is wearing.
So cute! Love the fabrics on the dress you made. I’m excited to see what you’ve been working on!
I looooove that dress. I want one in my size!
My first thought when the post opened was that I loved the dress your daugther is wearing. And I totally always point out to my husband how many things w/in eyesight I have made at any given time.
Sounds like you have a lot of excitment brewing. Tease.
OOH I’m excited to see what you’ve been up to!!
