Things have been busy around here lately. I actually have a whole two hours to myself in the afternoons (while everyone is at school) and I have been trying to use that time to my advantage to sew. I have sewn up curtains for three bedrooms, been making Halloween costumes, and working on other sewing projects for the house! I will share soon.....but most are going to be "another boring curtain picture" so be forewarned ;) But after school we have had some sewing lessons going on...and a ... View the Post
An Impractical Autumn Dress For Ruth
Ruth has grown out of most of the dresses that I've made for her so recently I cut out a bunch of new ones for her to wear through the fall and winter....but then I also made her this one.... It's perfectly impractical in every way for our autumn temperatures. (And it's totally Cindy Brady.) But it is so perfect for those chubby legs and arms that I couldn't resist! The dress is from a 1960's Simplicity pattern and made with Penny Rose fabrics. And even though I'm in love...I will start sewing ... View the Post

Autumn
"I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house." -Nathanial Hawthorne Yesterday I should have finished up the girls costumes, vacuumed the kids bedrooms, folded the laundry, and photographed the dress for today's post. Instead my husband and I took the kids to a local farm... ...where we stayed until we were all frozen, smelled like goats, and the sun had long gone down. It was a glorious evening and I don't regret my decision. Tonight we will be ... View the Post
Disney’s Jane Costume
This year Halloween is filled with lots of firsts and lasts at our house. Isaac is 4 and so terribly excited for his "first real Halloween class party" and the oldest so graciously informed me that he didn't want a costume this year. My kids are at such different stages of life......but I am bound and determined to enjoy this Halloween with each of those different kids at each of their stages. It's all so different for each of them. The youngest can't wait to march in his own Halloween ... View the Post
