Easter Bags





The light is really terrible in these pictures so you can't get an idea of just how cute they are. Erin and I spent about 5 hours last week putting these together. It was really easy; we used this tutorial. Getting the ribbons on straight was a bit of a challenge, and you can see on the side seams which ones we rushed through because the ribbon ends don't match up. There's one for each child in the family, and for the young couples without children. Expect some Easter goodness in the mail soon!

Dress For Grace


This is the first piece of clothing that I have sewn completely from start to finish. It has lots of little problems here and there, and is too short for Grace to wear on its own, but it feels good to have made something all by myself (almost, with some coaching from Elaine)
