Ok, tell me she's not the cutest little thing ever. Really. Try it. I wouldn't believe ya for a second even if it were possible to speak such lies. :) Now, as many of you know, I'm a mom to a boy and happy to be. I've said many times that I'd like another boy someday. The more adorable stuff I make for Ali-cat the more that changes ever so slightly. Anytime I show up at her house in anything other than jeans she MUST have one in her size. You better believe that everyday last week she asked daily where her 'blue dress' was! I had to wear my blue skirt that I whipped up last week and royally screwed up the hem on, so I had to add a petticoat that I don't like much. So now we are all matchy-matchy for the day and look kinda dorky. I promised them they could use their free pizza coupons from the library today as well, so I have to go out in public dressed like a 2 yr old. At least I don't have to cook!
I also *finally* finished this great Slapdash Messenger Bag for a custom order. I'm almost embarrassed how long it took me to finish with all of last weeks drama, and show preparation taking up most of my other time, but it is DONE! I know I say this a lot, but I don't like pink. Then I made this and I almost have to like pink. It turned out so nice!! This is at least the 4th pink bag that I've wanted to keep. What are you people doin to me?! I even bought pink fabric for a skirt yesterday. Ahhhh the horror! It's actually quite beautiful, with white, yellow, and silver in it too. I can't wait to show it off! I have to finish up the crocheted waistband and then I'm ready to sew! Now if only I could find some burnt orange cotton gauze...
I was really hoping to update with a picture from this post but then I gave my friend Beth the AWESOME pillows I had made her and never got a picture of them! Boooo! So my apologies to anyone that really wanted to see them. I pinky-promise they were fabulous. I'm hoping to make one for me, I'll show that one off then! It's on my mile-long list of things I want that I don't have time to make. Someday...
