Well, I didn’t get much done at all on my 11 days off from work. A lot of lazy days, which we really needed. I did get a few items completed before vacation, though. I got a serger for Christmas and have yet to get it out of the box. It is a little intimidating […]

Sewing projects – the giveaway and some Christmas finery
By Stacy on December 18, 2007Well, finally I got it done. The giveaway outfit, won by Renae, for her 16 month-old boy. The picture kinda sucks, but since I had it all packaged up and ready to go, I wasn’t going to get it back out for another one. The red fabric is cotton with sweatered puppies frolicking in the […]
I finally got this outfit done, after buying this flannel fabric at some point this summer. She obviously didn’t need flannel pants at that point in time, though did she? The fabric is so cute and girly and soft…I knew I could think of something to do with it. After moving everything so my house […]
These were some simple sets I whipped up in a sewing frenzy on Sunday. Again, I didn’t make the shirts, but bought plain ones at Old Navy and Target ($3-something at Target…good deal!) and then I just embellish them. The pants are all soft flannel. Just some comfy fun loungey sets. The first two are […]
Well, I couldn’t hardly wait to show you all this outfit, since I finished it last Thursday. I promised not to bore everyone, so I’m sticking to my guns! I LOVE THIS OUTFIT! I saw this piece of fabric (Sari by RJR Fabrics) on the remnant table and snatched it up quick as a wink. Then […]
Yes, yet ANOTHER SEWING POST! Get your fill people…I’m sure it will be a few weeks before more come your way. I have a few Mei Tai’s to make and my taxidermist father dropped off some felt to make the backing for a bear rug. Lucky me. I’d much rather be making cute outfits! Now…doesn’t […]
Yes! Another pant set! Can you tell Old Navy had a sale going on with their plain t-shirts? Oh, wait…I think this one came from Target, but it was ON SALE, too! I love these quick sets, plus I bought the shirts in 3T, so that means that I get some extra wearings out of them. They should […]
You are going to get overkill this week on the sewing posts…hope you don’t mind! Since I didn’t have any sewing posts for August and September, I have to make up for lost time. 😉 I cut out a bunch of stuff on Sunday, so I have been busy sewing at night after the kids […]

Sewing project – the blue pirate
By Stacy on October 22, 2007All done! Can’t you just see me doing a jig?? The Boy loves his costume and doesn’t want to take if off once it is on…so it took me awhile to get pictures. His pirate pants are made out of a striped brown corduroy fabric. I made them short and cuffed to show off his […]

Renaissance girl costume
By Stacy on October 18, 2007Here it is! Much blood, sweat and tears (and occasional curse words) went into this little number. Upon putting it on her, she immediately wanted it off. I should have lined the dress, but hindsight being what it is…she will have to suffer!(or I will just put a t-shirt on underneath it 😉 ) I […]
