One for the little sister




Abbey, my 4.5 year old loves when we can find matching outfits for her and Kennedy who is 4.5 months old. So, she asked if I could make a matching dress for her. She did want EXACTLY the same, but I didn't have enough fabric to do that, so I made her a 'matching opposite' dress which was good enough for her lol. Can't wait to try her in it

And I'm back with the program



With this gorgeous dress I made for Abbey tonight. Got to use my new overlocker too - and have to say I LOVE it! Matching hair ties too of course :D

My first softie!



Phoebe the Elephant!

It is a Melly and Me pattern, a little trick in one or two spots (more lack of experience on my behalf though) but quite fun!

Pillowcase Dress


Thought I would try a pillowcase dress - it is so very similar to the Caroline dress I made already. But it is SO much easier!! Probably took a quarter of the time that it took me to make the other dress. I would have much preferred a material tie as opposed to ribbon but I didn't have any contrasting fabric that matched nicely.

A little gift for a special girl



A friend of mine had a gorgeous baby girl yesterday. Her first daughter would have turned 1 today but she sadly passed away at 3 months old. I wish nothing but happiness and health to baby H and her mummy and daddy.

Look what I found today



And I thought they were done! We have been having some crazy weather lately, lots of rain and quite humid so I was quite pleased. There is nothing sweeter tasting than strawberries picked and eaten straight away - yum!
