Colette Bloomers ROCK!
These bloomers were made for my 21 year old daughter. The fabric is a navy blue cotton mix with white ribbon down the front to coordinate with the white bows at the leg openings. Lots of fun to make and so easy! Pattern is free from Colette Bloomers Pattern

Work Out with Master Kim
This is my son working out with his Master that he has been with since he was 6 years old. He actually participated in the Jr. Olympics at Atlanta GA a couple of years ago. He has worked so hard to get to this point. He is a third degree blackbelt. Normally people do not know what he has accomplished as he does not brag or tell anyone about this part of his life, but I felt as his mother this is one time I will make the exception and do it for him. If he see's this he may want me to take it down, so watch it while you can. LOL

Feliz Dress Sew-a-long Project

Owl Birthday Dress
I just wanted to share some photos of my new creation. I made this dress for a little girl that my daughter nanny’s for. The pattern I used is by Farbenmix / Studio Tantrum, The Feliz Dress. It has two layers with a pinafore on top and a dress under which I embellished with ruffles. The upper back section has four rows of elastic that is decorative as well as convenient for putting on and taking off. The tie in the back also helps to adjust the dress as she grows.
The owl fabric was purchased from JoAnn Fabrics and the brown check fabric was purchased from Chez Ami in their fabric section.
The dress form that it is on is for a size 4t and the dress is a size 6, so it looks a bit large in the pictures.

My Crazy Valentine
This is the Valentine that I gave to my crazy Valentine this year. I found the tutorial at http://sewmamasew.com/blog2/?p=4778 . I used a khaki linen for the outer envelope and the insert and I used a cotton heart print fabric for the lining of the envelope. I tried my luck at hand stitching my Valentines name on the outer envelope so it looks like it could use some help. I used my embroidery machine to do the lettering on the insert “I LOVE U” and then hand stitched some old heart trim that was given to me off of freecycle.com. Oh and a red button for the closure of the envelope.
