Hats, dresses and other stuff!


Having a new baby in the house has seriously cut into my sewing time but he is soo cute and cuddly I don't really mind!  But I have been trying to get a few things done.  Master 5 was invited to twin girls birthday party and I thought they would love a new dress each.  It helps when the Cupcake Dress is so quick to put together!  I had the two plus another for a friend whipped up in only a couple of nights. 


Both of the older boys have needed new hats for a while and a friend had a new baby so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to make some more!  I forgot to take a photo of the baby hat before sending it away on Friday.


I also finished the No Rules Blocks and put it together in a wall hanging for a friend's wedding recently.  I have forgotten to take a photo of that but might try to remember on the weekend to go around and take one.

The latest on  my finished list is something I have just finished and taken a photo of.  I have made a stocking for each member of our little family after seeing the pattern on the Kids Quilts website.  I think I made Master 5's and the MOTH's in 2007, Master 3 and mine in 2008 (from memory finishing them on Christmas Eve)! and have just finished our latest one's today.  Now that our little family is complete it's one more job I can cross off my list.

The list of things I want to make/sew seems to keep growing without much being crossed off!  I have picked up another Make It Perfect pattern for dresses and want to make some for next year's birthday girls as well as make some nappy wallets for me and a couple of friends.  And there's also all the Christmasy things that probably won't get done before Christmas! 

Happy Sewing
