A Skirt

I finished this yesterday and big yeah it fits!!!!!!! The last couple of things I have made for myself I have been in a bit of denial about my um, bit larger waist line. I'm doing something about the waist line though and in the mean time I'm sewing skirts like this that will be fairly simple to take in as I get smaller again.

Sundress



This adorable sundress took me more time than I thought it would, but then every endeavor now days does :). I bought the pattern earlier this spring thinking I could make a cute summer play dress for Olivia, however this is made in the smallest size in the pattern and would be huge on her so it is going to go in my new ETSY shophttp://www.beautifulycreated.etsy.com/. Go on over and take a look. I will be adding things periodically as I create.

Christening Dress


My first baby sewing project completed. Ilove this dress so sweet and delicate. I made it from muslin and lace and the results are just wonderful. We had Olivia's pictures taken in it and after DH was carring it around the mall and had ladies asking where we had purchased it from.
First picture is the dress with the Jacket.

The detail at the hem. I love the scallops with the lace underlay.

Busyness

So my life tends to turn upside down at times, usually when I think it's all together. I am just about finished with the dress I am making for the Baby's dedication and my sewing machine broke. I just wrote the company to see about getting a replacement part for it and I'm going to take it apart and see if there is any thing I can do with it to get a couple of projects done. I'm trying to get a dress done for the Baby to where to my brothers wedding too, well see we leave in a week and a half for the wedding. Better get working on the machine.

First Post

I'm new to this so stick with me while I'm learning. I'm not sure how much I will blog or what about exactly. I know I will be posting about the projects that I am working on. I love sewing and almost any other craft and want to share all the beautiful things that can be created.
