Sweet's #4 birthday outfit! Her skirt is the bottom tier of a skirt I have that was way too long. There was so much material that I was able to make a miniature version for Carly too, and all THREE of us were matching (Rachel's favorite thing right now). I think it was her favorite part of the whole day.
Boo wanted to wear her almost-too-small NCSU tee shirt, but it definitely needed to be girlified. So I sewed up a little skirt using the bottom hem of a checked dress I had shortened for a friend and part of an adult tee...a little elastic and BAM...cuteness...
new playdress for Boo. The top part came from a hand-me-down bodysuit...I'm so over bodysuits by this age, so I snipped the snaps and added the floral knit from a $1 Kmart tee shirt. happiness!
favorite baby shower gift to date: car seat blanket! i used a tutorial from another blog for this one, and i LOVE how it turned out. the other side is all stripes, like the border.
Mothers' Day cards...I let Sweet pick out the scraps for each mother on our list, and I sewed them to a note card. Fun, quick, easy, and inexpensive. Now that I'm "making" these (thanks to another tutorial), there's no more running to the store for last minute cards...that's the best part!
You are thee craftiest momma ever :) When in the world do you find the time to do all this? You slipping those girls tylenol pm in their milk ;)
ReplyDeleteSeriously... I should stop hanging out with you b/c you are too cool for me and I feel inadequate :) All of this stuff is awesome but I think my favorite is the Carly skirt...but I like everything!
ReplyDeleteLove this stuff, Anna! It makes me want to dig into my mom's boxes of my favorite childhood clothes she saved and make something! Too bad I have no idea how or any kiddos to wear them! haha!
ReplyDeleteALSO, i can't believe how grown-up Rachel looks in that pic!
ReplyDeleteLove all your sewing - and that you link to tutorials! I'm such a novice but LOVE the cuteness. Just this morning in church I was thinking (um, dreaming) about matching skirts for me and CJ. :)
