Easter 2011

We had such a lovely day, first Church then we came home and ate a great lunch together and then hunted eggs with the girls. Mom came and stayed with us this weekend and the girls and I really enjoyed having her with us. Greg and I are so blessed to have such healthy happy girls. But even with all the joy that they bring us each holiday that comes around is so sad without our son and his family with us. We continue to pray daily that the Lord will bring them back to us.



Kaylee is the best big sister she loves her baby sister so much.



I made the girls dresses. They are made from Pima Cotton and smocked in white dmc. The collars, yokes and cuffs are piped with whipstitch piping the pattern is Collars Yoke Dress.





Ferbie had to show off his bunny ears and that smile on Kaylee's face is just too precious.



We really got hot outside finding all those eggs I was surprised how warm it was on Easter Sunday. I can't recall it being this warm in April here in Alabama, but I'm sure it has been.

Lady Bugs for my little lady bugs.

Such fun fabric by Fabric Finders the girly girls around here love their lady bugs! The pants/capri shorts are Bonnie blue "Riley" a purchased tank top with a added angel sleeve. The bubble is a new pattern from Carrie Barrow called "Summer Bubble". I think Mylee looks so cute in bubbles showing those chubby little legs, I will post a pic asap of her in it.

Some recent sewing.







Easter Egg Hunt dress



I have been sewing up the girls some spring and summer clothes and trying out some new patterns.

Just being silly!

These were taken last Friday before we left for storytime at the library. They are some silly bunch of rovers. Kaylee and Mylee's outfits were made out of Riley Blake rainy day fabric. The applique came from planet applique. Kiery's outfit was made by her mommy. Knoxie's is a hannah kate outfit and I appliqued the K on it. We had a great day, my friend Teresa went with me so we could make a fabric stop in Trussville at Sew Biz. She kept telling me how well behaved the rovers were so I finally ask her was she trying to convince herself or me? hehe. They are really good when we go out, one reason is we don't venture out much so when we do it's a treat.

That's all folks!

Circus Clowns, Skirts and Back Bow Dress

 These two little rovers are dressed and ready to go to the circus tonight. I drafted the skirt pattern today and the ME appliques came from http://www.appliquesforkids.com/ and http://www.planetapplique.com/.

                                                 Ferbie had to join in on the fun too.

 I have decided to start my own line of clothing this little dress is one that I will be selling along with the skirt. More info to come, when I finally get the time to set up my website.

 Isn't this just the cutest little skirt! The pattern is Dancer the fabric is all Michael Miller.

 Sandbox pants maybe a new favorite pants pattern, Kaylee said they are so comfy.

Sewing brings me such joy especially when I see how much my precious granddaughters love everything I make them.
