Project overload!

It's been awhile since I have posted any projects. Doesn't mean I haven't been working on any! I've told myself that I can't start anything big until I finish the blankets for the boys beds. So, I've done little projects...I made this skirt for me!! It took less than an hour. Super easy. I got to try out my new serger and the automatic buttonhole maker on my sewing machine. Now I won't be scared anymore to make anything with buttons! I had to make two little buttonholes to put the tie through on the skirt. It just might be a summer for skirts because I'm making one of these in every color!

Christmas in April? Yup! I made this wall hanging early because I wanted to see how easy it would go because I'm going to make two more for special people for Christmas. Embroidering the pictures is the only part that takes a while and that can be done while watching T.V.

Okay- this little quilt took me a while to get used too. But, it has grown on me and I really like it. I usually don't pick these colors but I had them because they had come in a cute little package. I like the browns and greens and oranges. It still needs to be quilted together which I'm going to try out on my own. It's not very big--more of a decorative quilt.

So, if you don't hear from me for a bit it's because I'm following my rule and only working on the boys blankets, which are both more than halfway done.

Her Little Black Dress!

Sydney had this onesie when she was just a few months old and since I thought it was so cute I bought one in a bigger size. If you can't see it, the front says "This is my little black dress". Now that she can wear it I decided to "dress" it up a little bit. It's actually pretty tricky sewing a gathered piece of material onto a onesie. I had to draw a line around it and then pin. I liked using a onesie though because it covers up her diaper so it's not all you see as she crawls away.
I did make another t-shirt dress today for her as well. The shirt is navy blue and the skirt is red with white stars. I made the skirt longer than the pink one so she'll be able to wear it still in a few months. It will be perfect for the fourth of July. I'm not going to post a picture of it yet because it's not all the way finished. Still need to put some little stars on the front.
