Kaitlin's January Dress



Here's Kaitlin's January dress we made. It is identical (except in size) to the one we made for Stephanie's daughter, Aiyana. I think they turned out really cute, especially the jacket!

Ava's Dress


So my neighbor had a little girl about a month ago and I decided to make her a dress for church and just general cute newborn activities. I really like how this dress turned out. The dress is made out of a pink Shantung fabric with a fully lined the top.

Aiyana's January Dress


Okay for our month: January dress, we made matching blue dresses for Kaity, Aiyana, and Elizabeth. Aiyana has a matching purse with her outfit, but they all have matching jackets. The fabrics used are a aqua blue kona cotton, a white satin, and a white faux fur. I was very happy with this project and can't wait for the February dresses to be finished!

Presents For Aubrey

For Aubrey's baby shower, I made her this cute little set. A blanket, dress, shirt & shorts that all match. Once again, Stephanie helped me with all of it! I don't do much sewing without her!





Purple Blankets

Laurel also had me make a couple of blankets for Aubrey.

A purple butterfly blanket,


and a purple monkey blanket.


Of course, Stephanie helped me with these too!

A Crib For Aubrey

My sister, Laurel, asked if I would sew a crib set for her little girl, Aubrey, who is due next month. She picked out (and paid for) the fabrics and I sewed the heck out of it! Here's how it turned out (not too bad if I do say so myself!)





I also recovered the cushions on my old glider rocker for her.



Of course, my best friend and sewing buddy, Stephanie, helped with all of it. In fact the zippers in the cushions are all her. (She's far better at zippers than I am!)
