long sleeves for Hazel Mae

She would be happy to wear a dress every day.  So naturally she was rather upset when I put away all the summer clothes leaving her with only two dresses to wear.  Pulled out my ever favorite GYCT Holly and Ivy dress pattern and made this for her.  I love it.  I went up a few sizes on the sleeves so they'd be fuller and put elastic in at the wrists. It also has a 3 inch hem so fingers crossed she'll be able to wear it again next fall.

More Halloween

Sarah needed her Duck.  So I made one up.  I forgot how much I love making stuffed animals! Also made "Bag" for me as I was being scarf lady from the show as well.

Happy Halloween

Witch dress made from VFT Matilda pattern.  Ghost costume was just whipped up out of my head, far from perfect, but she was happy with it.
 Sarah costume made by my mom.  Baby loves the show Sarah & Duck.

Mouse costume - easiest costume ever, hello walmart sweats!  Did whip up the cheese bag for her though.

Vintage dress sew a long

The Handmaiden's Cottage has started doing occasional vintage dress pattern sew a longs.  Naturally I MUST join.  This time I actually got one whipped up during the sew a long unlike the last one.  She may never wear it again but fingers crossed one of her sisters will....

baby gifts

Some fun bibs in progress.  I used the free liberty bib pattern as a starting point.  Google it. I'm feeling lazy about linking lately....

JillyAtlanta Challenge

JillyAtlanta had a challenge of if you made their patterns in a week, you'd get the purchase refunded.  So I quickly got to work making two of her patterns....went for a bit of a boho look

My mom made Baby's dress and doesn't remember what pattern. I made the bonnet and dont' remember what pattern either!

 Not impressed with sister pushing the buggy. Sister's dress is from Bugaboutique.
Rather proud of the embroidery on the brim of her bonnet.  Other fun tidbit about baby's outfit is she's wearing shoes that were my cousin's, purchased in Germany when my uncle was stationed there 30 years ago.  My cousin passed them on to me knowing I'd greatly appreciate them. :)
