Tie

I saw this cuteness online and had to make it..

which now means we need to have a little boy...

I also made bibs for the girls since I can never find cute ones

with snaps

and most days I come out to find Lilly using Elise's bib

as a pully to turn herself over..

Sewing

say hello to my littttllleee friend....

I honestly have no idea whether this is a good sewing machine or not..

but after discussion with the lady at Joann Fabrics..

she heard that I had not sewn since 7th grade

suggested I start with a "beginner" sewing machine..

So, I unpacked this beaut..and started reading the manual..

threading the bobbin..doesn't seem so hard..

well...

a few (insert mild cuss words) later I realized that it is hard..

Before I threw the sewing machine in the trash

Russ (who also has not sewn since home ec in middle school)

helped me get it set up..

then made me practice on paper since I was still a little *crazy*..

So, I decided to decorate all of my burp clothes for some practice

I have also been trying to make bibs..but so far

its just a hot mess..

I want to try and make this dress for the girls for easter

in pink of course!!!!
