I am lucky enough to be part of a "sewing circle" here in my home town. Every Thursday a group of girls meet at sweet Theresa's house and sew from 6:30pm - 9:30pm. Let me tell you that I have learned EVERYTHING that I know about sewing from these wonderful women. On that note, every year sweet Theresa opens her home for a 24 hour Sew-A-Thon from 5:30 on a Friday night to 5:30 Saturday night. Most of us spend the night and then we sew until our pretty much every bone in our bodies hurts and we (meaning ME) are stupid from exhaustion. Example would be that Sunday morning before church, I put 6 scoops of sugar in my coffee, while putting 0 scoops in Michael's cup. Anyway, it was too much fun and I can't wait until next year. I was able to crank out 2 jumpers and 1 overall for Parker Reese. Boy was I productive!!!!
This is an overall pattern that I LOVE!!! I don't have this fabric available anymore (it was a remnant), but I can make it in another fabric.
I don't know if you can tell, but this fabric is navy with little white apples with pink stems all over it. I also thought this would be really cute with an appliqued apple on a shirt and a pair of pants made out of this same fabric. Hmmmm....I see an idea for next fall!
The last is a purple jumper with an ivory, floral print shirt turned out better than I thought. For some reason, purple outfits are hard for me, but this I really like. The piping on the the romper is the floral print.
And Here are Two Orders!!!
This was for my friends little girl Katherine. I really like the megaphone and pom poms (even though it was painful to do a Bama shirt).
This is the Dotty applique font from Embroidery Boutique.
Hopefully, I will have a few more things posted this week, but don't know because the goblins are out and I may not be able to get much done.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
