Girl Robin



Halloween costume #2 done. Yaaaaa. I made her shirt (peasant style) out of cotton and the rest out of felt like her brother. All I can think from looking at these pics is poor girl got her mamas hair...Thin, fine and unmanageable....:(

1 Down, 1 To Go


Batman and Robin. I have Batman done. I went with felt this year for 2 reasons. Cheap and Easy. I made the mask out of thin foam. Not too shabby for a few dollars spent:)

Bride of Frankenstein




I can't believe it has been a month since my last post. I have made some wallets out of the vintage fabric. I am working on one of the prints from the 80s. I found some cute 80s charms to hang from the zipper. I have also been working on this zipper pouch key chain. I have been trying to get some feedback on them.

Vintage Fabric Find




I went to this thrift store and noticed these huge trash bins of fabric. I think I spent a total of $1.75. I found some totally 80's fabric. One reminds me of the movie TRON. And for the best, I found this big bag at the bottom...it was full of sample fabrics...I am thinking from the 60's. It is the perfect size for 1 mini wallet. I must have about 75 different pieces, and some have the names still on them....What a find...It was probably sitting there for months...:)

My BAG




I was getting tired of PINK...So, I was excited to start a bag for myself....I love it. Again the pattern required hand sewing the inside...BLAH..There has to be a better way? I did put a huge obnoxious sequence letter on my friends diaper bag pocket but forgot to take a pic.. It looked great.

The Bag to Match....But Pocket Unfinished.



I bought a new Simplicity Pattern on Sale w the cutest bags on it. My friend picked this one out to match her Diaper Clutch. The outside looks so great but the pattern required a lot of handsewing inside the bag which I can't stand. So, it has a few issues...I think it is still usable...but would redo the directions of the pattern if I remade the bag. Who makes these directions...? Anyway, the pocket does not looked finished to me...I was thinking of ironing on a Big Monogram embroidered letter...What do you think...too cheesy?

Cupcake Diaper Holder and Wipe Case




I have been wanting to desing a diaper holder. I have 3 very pregnant friends in need of one. I prettied the wipe case too just for fun. It was a fun project. I was going to line it with somethink leak proof but was having a hard time finding some liner I liked.:)
