Baby Cloche 1

I should've taken pictures of my progress but it was a lot of unstitching and crying so I wasn't thinking about the camera...haha. I started following the pattern then I ditched the pattern and hoped it would turn out okay. I think for my first attempt it looks pretty darn good!

SLACKER




yes I know I am a slacker. Working, dealing with a toddler, and being pregnant while trying to move in and settle before baby comes leaves not much time for play.

I found this tutorial and I am IN LOVE with it. I hope I can pull it off :-)

Logan's 1 Year!





I have been doing stuff I swear! Here's some proof. I made these for my sweet little boy's first birthday. I forgot to get a picture of the envelope, darn it. It was orange. So cute. I love them.

Sewing!

I don't own a sewing machine. The only one I've ever used was my mother's really REALLY old one and I'm pretty sure the extent of what I've done is square pillows. I've wanted to get a sewing machine for a long time but it just hasn't been in our budget. A friend of mine lent me hers since she is too busy to use it right now so I am on the search for some projects to start learning how to sew, or at least more extensively. I'm super excited!

These are so cute and I would love to make them for Logan.
