The Week Ends

I must say this week has been so fun.  Although I did miss S, caring for one easy baby was a nice break.  I got so much done.  S finally has some cute summer clothes that will hopefully last her through the school year.

Here is another twirly skirt, this time I used Lisette voile and poplin for the hem and waist.  I think I like the voile and poplin better for this skirt.  It is still nice and full but drapes better than quilting cotton.

I even had time to make the teachers at S's dance camp thank you gifts.  Below are Rapunzel zippy pouches made from a Skip to My Lou tutorial, found here

Since the camp was based on Disney's Tangled, I thought it was appopriate to use Heather Ross's Rapunzel fabric.  I love how this turned out.  Heather Ross's fabrics make the simplest things look beautiful.

 And the project that I am most exicted about.  I had bought S a knit romper from target a month ago for our Disneyland trip.  It was super cheap, maybe under $5, and as cheap clothes go, cute but plain.  It was a solid hot pink with a little ice cream cone iron-on.  I really liked the cut of the romper though and decided to make s one out of nicer fabric.  I'm so glad I did because it turned out so cute.

I used the target romper as a pattern, just laid it right on top of the fabric and started cutting away.  I added bias tape for the edging of the shorts and the top. 

I'm hoping to keep the momentum going.  Both girls need sun hats.  Hmmm, maybe an Oliver & S bucket hat for S and a Made by Rae Peekaboo Bonnet for B.  Stay tuned...
