I'm On a Sewing Kick




Here are a few of the projects I have been doing. Don't you just love my photography skills? These are all baby gifts. The ones with the initials on them are fonts I copied and made patterns from. I used a tight zigzag stitch and sewed them onto the fabric. The two bottom pictures are of what I call "lovies"...just smaller squares of fabric that the little ones can carry around. I sewed little loops of ribbon onto the lovies for the babies to play with. All of my friends loved these and I just got an order for two of them. Not that I was taking orders but a sweet friend of mine asked if I would make her 2 for her friends. I had a lot of fun with these and with the blanket for baby Henry at the top. All of this was very easy and it got my creative juices flowing again. So I got really brave and decided to make my six year old daughter's Easter dress. It turned out really cute too. Now I am on the search to find what I want to sew next. I found this really neat link on another blog I am following for cloth napkins. They are so cute and vintage that I thought I might make a set for my mom to go in her Mother's Day basket. I'm not sure what else will go with them but Mom is easy to please.
