Projects

So I made this the other day, and I think it turned out pretty darn cute.

Especially on its new owner.
This little nut makes me so happy.
So my friend Ariane had the idea to make these onesie dresses for our girls. (she had little Jo just six weeks after Sophie was born.) Anyway- neither one of us is very talented with the sewing machine, but we had fun and I thought our dresses turned out cute! We only had one minor mishap... Ariane sewed her finger. Yes, ALL the way through! Fingernail and all. And she didn't even cry. And she didn't even scream! She is one tuff cookie. All I heard was a **GASP! "I'm sewed to your machine!" And that she was. Luckily the needle had gone all the way through and back out, so we didn't have to deal with the needle. But the thread was running through the middle of the finger so we had to pull that out. I think if it were me I may have freaked out a bit, but Ariane just laughed. So I did too. It was pretty funny. Anyway- this was a fun little project. Thanks Air!

Oh... and this is in the works...
