It was a rainy (off and on), car-less, hang around, crafting kind of day! Long but made a little more fun by simple pleasures:) Here's a peek into what my new best friend and I accomplished today!
I started these baby dresses as gifts last week and have been too busy to finish them unti today!
Little pink and purple pillowcase dress!
And a pretty blue and green one! I really like the lace on this one. The nice thing about these dresses is that they ca be worn for a long time. With shirts underneath, without, with a cardigan or sweater and as it becomes shorter....as a shirt! Fun.
And, thanks to a bday Joann's gift card, our couch pillows got a little makeover!!
These are the before....getting worn, a little ripped and stained. I was so proud of these a few years ago.....But now.....
Ta Da!! I am in LOVE with the new pillows! I just finished them about 15 minutes ago:) Totally different look. Please ignore the ugly, stained couch that needs a good green machine cleaning.
Obviously that's on my next to-do list.
A close-up!
I debated long and hard at my favorite crafting store over fabric options, even going so low as to recruiting the boys' opinions:)
And my favorite touch, the fabric flowers!!
It's fun to get into a mode like this. And I have several more projects waiting in the ques....
So much to do, so little time:)
