Wedding Bag


Fabric from a wedding dress that was removed makes a great bag. This was fun and easy. The hard part was finding time to go get the zipper.

My Skirt


I had a summer skirt that I really liked a lot, unfortunately it shrank a couple of sizes from being washed. Anyway... I had the top of a pair of jeans that fit, so I cut the top off the skirt and added the skirt to the jeans. Now I have a summer skirt again!!

Summer Dresses


I love sewing. My stress level yesterday was amazingly bad. I managed to make 2 dresses, a skirt and a handbag.

The dresses - the button one is the original pattern, the lace up one is one that Katie suggested. I think she had the right idea. The lace up one was fun because I finally got to use grommets. Both of these dresses went to the Katies, our Katie has a friend named Katie. I hope they fit the girls.

The tops were made out of pant legs from a pair of jeans. The remainder of the jeans was made into a skirt for me.

Recycle Tee Shirt


A recycled adult tee shirt made into a baby's shirt.

This was a cool way to remake a shirt that I liked.

Army Tribute


A tribute to the Army for a Grand-Daughter.

I love this little outfit.
I'm very please with the out come of this. A summer wrap around for a little girl and matching britches.

Butterfly dress?

I did it! I combined a design from quilting to make a baby dress. I'm not the first to do this, but I finally found an excuse to do it. Check it out!

From the picture though, it looks like a bird with bugs on the skirt. Oh, well.
