A Work in Progress
Here's "babygirl" sporting the still unfinished purple pinafore. You can see I need to take it in at the sides to fit her. But, ain't she cute?!
After I get it perfectly fitted to her, I'll take some nicer shots and add them to my header. Yay! I'm fascinated by fabric flowers right now. It was fun to sculpt this rather large rose for my beautiful niece. I'm curious to see how it will come out of the wash. Thank you for posing for "Auntie Lala", Miss V!

Lovely Spoonflower
http://www.spoonflower.com/welcomeEeek! I'm so excited about this website that I found, thanks to the Fabled Needle. It's called Spoonflower, and you can design your own fabric!
I KNOW! So neato-speedo. I've been wanting to create my own fabric for, like EVER. Check it out.

Dead Tree
I took a break from sewing for some play-time with the camera. Missy was a great model. She used to just run off and explore, now she stays close to me. After looking at so many beautiful and inspiring blogs; my head is spinning with creative ideas. I need to pin them down on paper before they run off on me.
The capri pants that I'm wearing were just plain beige until they got bleach spots on them. I had planned to just dye them beige, over the spots. But, they came out tie-dye brown. Oh well, I'm just gonna go with it. I guess they're kinda like CA brown grass camouflage, now. That works. Ok, gotta get back to the sewing machine, now. If I can get my paid projects done then I can make a 4th of July outfit!
Bye for now :)
