A Few New Creations

Another Grown-Up Dress :) This is the first dress I have made for myself that I "splurged" and bought new fabric.
The belt is still thrifty though :)

I found a super-duper 80's pattern for this circle skirt and overalls.
  I love how it turned out! Now all of my nieces want one.

I started making these little bundle babies out of some socks I bought at Michaels for only $1 a pair. 
I made one today for a friend's baby and put a dingle bell in the head so it chimes and rattles.  I was inspired by a lady selling these on etsy...shhhh, don't tell anyone! :)



This little jumper dress is from a really old pattern.  The yellow flowers are an old table cloth.
 I actually braved it and put the zipper in by myself.  Hey, I am still a beginner sewing momma! 
The belt on this is from the same fabric on the belt on my polka-dot number dress.

Well I thought I should update my blog with a few of my new creations.  More to come...

** Another Sibling Sock Buddy **

  A Horse For The Fourth

This is a sassy little horse that I designed and hand crafted for my sister Susan.  She and my dad had a special place in thier lives for our horses and would spend hours out riding together.  In other words, I just HAD to make #4 a horse.  I had never tried one before, so I practiced on an old pair of wool socks. Of course, Amelia has claimed that one ;) 

 Silly me forgot to take a picture of this crazy haired horsey.  Thanks for sending me the pics, Susan!
