And I have been hankering after a woman’s trench pattern a la the Secret Agent 🙂

And here are the ones Peta made and that I totally copied being modeled:

I’ve made these for my boys – they make great boy pants. The rise is not an issue:

@Emily without talking about your son’s “down there” bits I can’t imagine a 3 year old boy needs any different crotch rise from a girl of the same age!
I made some here; https://www.flickr.com/photos/79480359@N03/8668350104/in/dateposted-public/ for my son when he was 4. No adjustments and they fit very well.

Meleliza, did you make the lovely lace overlay bistro dress last year? I seem to remember one that matched your daughters dress?

This is the one I’m thinking of. Espically as your daughter will have her own beautiful flower girl dress to wear so it won’t be matchy.

That tee sounds fantastic! Looking forward to seeing it.

What a sweet surprise, Tamara. I woke up to a vase of tulips and a card from my husband on my bedside table. When I came downstairs the kids presented me with handmade cards. It is a busy day filled with commitments so I probably won’t get much sewing time until the evening. I told my husband he can give me a raincheck 🙂

I am really looking forward to seeing that tee, Shelley!

I couldn’t sleep last night so I ran back downstairs to make myself a nursing sleep tank. That brings my count to two sleep bras, two nighties and a tank. I think I’m probably set for nursing sleepwear now …

Happy Mother’s Day! Just thinking about heading out to a quilt finishing day at the senior’s centre. The ladies like it when “young” people come, and they don’t mind that I sew other things. I’ll go for the morning.

Finally coming up for air after finishing a Metro long sleeved t-shirt for my husband’s birthday tomorrow. I gave myself a week of late nights by deciding to cross stitch the complete Galactica Space Invaders arcade game from the 80’s across the front! Pics soon I hope. Sleep first!!

After taking my niece the side opening parachute pants and showing her how they work, she requested some “night pants”, pajama pants, as “I will have to wear my casts all the time”. She requested them by tomorrow as that’s when she getting her casts. So I will put aside her birthday dress and make more pants 🙂
