I decided to work through a few wrinkles this weekend when making the Ruffle Halter. Same thing happened, the top piece grew as I ironed the hem! Thankfully, it works for this particular pattern, as it added more ‘ruffle’ to Ruffle 1. I did learn my lesson for future projects though!!

Playdate dresses for the twins finished and posted to flickr !
I love this dress pattern, and I am so pleased with them, retro and fun, but still groovy enough to appeal to (nearly) 12 year old girls.
I am half way through 2 Sailboat tops and hope to finish them directly once baby has finished her feed.
I will never get to this forum when I wean !

Getting ready to make 2 more ruffle tops for a friend, then moving on to the Puppet Show tunic!! Very excited and worried about this one…3 scissors, oh my! This will be a test of my learning and abilities thus far!

I’m waiting on some patterns in the mail (hopefully today!) and then I’m working on a Music class blouse for DD#1, and a Jump Rope dress and Birthday party dress for DD#2. I may also make another ruffle top (I love that pattern. I’ve made it three times so far.)

I have drafted the pattern and cut out the two younger girls Play Date dresses. Next is to draft and cut Sailboat tops for them.
Getting there!

Isn’t any one sewing ?
Finished Little Ones Play Date, so cute . Small One had already gone to bed ,so I will have to fit hers in the morning.
Sail Boat tops drafted and cut out. I have started to re-draft the Sketch Book shirt for Son&Heir , I ended up adding 6′ to the front and back length and 2′ to the sleeve and I think that will make a nice fit.
We leave for our Holiday on Friday, I hope I will get them finished !

Well, I’m sewing but it’s just boring ol’ diapers these days. Actually, they are very cute diapers, but not as fun as O+S clothes! I’m getting through the pile and then my machine needs to be serviced. I may have to actually do some housework while it’s gone!!
I know you’ll get those things finished for Friday, Nicole!

Working through some scraps to clean out my stash. Making a new teaparty sundress for another friend’s baby gift. Hoping then to get started on the puppet show dress. Truly, I think the scrap cleaning out was my way of hesitating on the puppet show project. The 3 scissors still intimdate me… However, the Niblet and I went out this weekend to get new fabric for the project. Nothing like new goodies for motivation! 🙂
