Taking a Break

I wanted to post a little note since it has been so long since my last post.

We have alot going on right now and my family needs me. I have had very little time to think about sewing. I have lots of material and new patterns sitting here just waiting to be gone through. I will be back. Please check in occasionally. I appreciate all who have checked in on me.

Daisies, Dots and Ladybug

This is a size 4t skirt and top. It is pink and brown dots and daisies.

Click on the picture to get a better look. The skirt is embellished with ric rac. Ana Claire was running around with her little pink boots on. This would also look precious with leggings or tights underneath.

A matching hair bow is included with this outfit.

The price of this outfit with hair bow is $40 plus $5.50 for shipping.

This outfit it SOLD. Thank you.

Update on our Sponsored Child

We received our monthly update on Julia. She is so precious! I hope a family somewhere finds her file and adopts her soon. She sounds like such a precious little girl. We are getting a little package ready to send her for Christmas. What a cutie she is. Below you will find our update.
If you feel God leading you you to do something for a child that is in need please consider sponsoring a child from here. They have such a wonderful program. You can choose the child you would like to sponsor.
On another note, I don't know how much time I will have time to sew as this is a very busy month for everyone. I have received a few emails I haven't had time to answer please be patient with me. We just celebrated Ana Claire's birthday and one of our son's is wrestling and it takes up alot of our time.
So check back. I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.


Julia is 4 Years 10 Months Old.
Julia's foster mom wrote this report.
Julia is a nice and intelligent girl. As she is getting older, she's becoming a little more reserved and shy. During the weekend, our older children come home. Julia used to rush to them for hugs when they opened the door. Now she just smiles broadly when they open the door, walks over and says, "I missed you very much." After that, her brother picks her up and gives her a big hug. Sometimes she stays home and plays with her foster dad when I go out to run errands. She has learned more English words at the foster home… she learned a lot of words for food, like "egg, dumpling, noodle, and rice." She is such a fast learner! A few days ago, she went to a tea party at one of the staff member's home. She was so excited to get dressed up and go to the party, but she was afraid the foster home staff would forget to pick her up! She was so anxious and worried that she'd miss it. In the end, she had a great time!

Checking in

Handmade flower on the shirt. Stem and leaves are hand embroidered. I also made a flower barrette to match. The flower on the shirt I attached to a brioche pin so it is removable for easy wash. Red Elephant Shirt and Twirl Skirt with a handmade flower barrette.

I haven't posted here in a while so I thought I would show you somethings I have been working on. I was out of commission for a little bit. Ana Claire pulled my sewing machine off the table and broke it. UGH! It is fixed now. YIPPEE!

I had a couple of special orders that I just finished with. I am very pleased with the way they turned out. What do you think? I do have the material to make 2 outfits like the flower shirt.

I thought I would order some more of the red material on Monday if anyone was interested. I love the way this twirl skirt turned out.

I am working on one outfit that I am going to put up for sale soon. ;) Please check back.

Have a GREAT weekend!
