time flies

I can't believe my little one is almost 5 months old! She gets more fun everyday with her ever expanding skill set. She's been sitting up lately on her own which is super fun along with her endless smiles and giggles! She loves spending time in her bouncy swing and playing with toys in her high chair (one more month and she'll be eating there, too!).

Meanwhile, I am knee deep in wedding crafting with paper flowers galore and lots of invitations waiting to be addressed in calligraphy. What a fun time!

Oh my. This fabric is just the cutest. It is also very fitting as my little one is quite the nature girl. No matter how fussy she might be, a quick walk outside is guaranteed to quiet her down.

Baby girl is here! 12 days into life with a newborn we are settling into a routine-- Mumsy(my mother) has gone back home & daddy has gone back to work, which means its just us girls at home for the day! I am starting my making for upcoming holiday shows amidst the eating, sleeping, snuggling, & diaper changing schedule of a tiny babe. Now that she is here,  I can't wait to share about all her little outfits and handmade accoutrements! So here it is the first volume of what baby wears....

shop update!

Sorry to have left this space neglected for so long! This summer it has seemed that there has been so many things to do and not enough time in the day to get them all done! I am happy to have FINALLY updated my website with current products--I'm not sure how many more weeks I'll be able to do the Artist Market before little baby makes her appearance, so I wanted to be sure to have my online shop ready to go. Plus having a new camera to take product photos makes the job a little more exciting too!

Here's a little peek at what is for sale at the moment...

handmade for baby: another kids clothes week

I'm at it again--participating in kids clothes week! This morning's project was a little baby tank top based on this pattern-- which I scaled down and added a bottom band to. Yesterday I sewed up some more cloth diapers but I'll save that for another post!

p.s. I've been doing lots of crafting for the artist market--at some point I'll pop in with an update on that too!
