Friendsgiving 2008

i forgot i also took some pictures with my iphone

Why I've Been MIA

so i've been crazy busy sewing- sewing- sewing. i'm in a couple of shows this years and decided to expand my repertoire and start making baby items. with the new little creature in my life as inspiration- it really wasn't too hard to figure out what i wanted to make. i'm calling this baby line VANILLA PIE

i love these flannel blankets i bought at target last year from the dwell studio collection and decided that was all elsa needed. the fabrics i saw in the store were so great i decided i had to start making my own. yes i know they look really easy since they are only surged around the edges- but they are still time consuming- i think they will be hard to sell because of the "i could make that" fact but i'm hoping the material will sell them. it really is fabulous

i decided not to make more of these- i thought it would be a fun way to use the scraps form the bibs & blankets- but it turns out to be way too time consuming for how little i wanted to charge.

these pacifier clips are made from japanese sewing tape i ordered straight from japan. they really have the coolest stuff. the designs on the tape are super cute. i'm loving these little matruska nesting dolls. i keep them short cause i was tired of elsa's pacifier dragging.

i made these booties tall-cause i wanted elsa's little legs to stay warm under her jeans. you can scrunch or roll them down- 3 styles in one- what baby doesn't want that!

i started making these bibs cause i was frustrated with the ones i had not covering enough- too short and skimpy- every time elsa turned her head- food would get all over the shoulders of her clothing. not anymore...

the pillow cases aren't for babys- we just really needed one for our couch so why not make them to sell

this weekend the 20th & 21st- is the TOM & LUCY show in lehi look to the left for the button for directions. in two weeks i'll be at the BEEHIVE BAZAAR dec 4th-5th-6th.

Don't Forget To VOTE!

today at kaleb's school they had mock voting booths for the kids to vote for obama or mccain. so i asked him who he voted for and why. he said " obama cause if he dies then the vice president guy who would go in for him will take over and not the women who's a poacher and is making polar bears extinct" i thought that was funny

Dance Off Pants Off

well i guess if you can't decide who to vote for you could always pick the better dancer. who knew mccain could krump



obama had it in the bag until palin comes out- now i may have to rethink things...
