Halloween 2011 Costumes

After much sewing, more sewing, shopping, sewing, painting, and more sewing...

The costumes for this year's Halloween:
Jolly Holiday Mary Poppins and Bert.


The dress with added ruffled lace trim and satin ribbon. Dreamy.
(oh yes, I used bridal lace. I thought the lady cutting it was going to die when she heard I was making a Halloween costume out of it.)


The hat with flowers and tulle.


The 4 layers of skirt with ruffled lace trim and lots of little satin bows.


Bert with straw hat, painted (by me) suit coat, and bright blue bow tie.


The bamboo cane, of course. 


Little suit pants and the all important blue socks. 
My husband thought the socks were too much. 
I thought he should have thanked me for not getting him white shoes. 
HAHA!


And one last walking photo, just for good measure.


That kid is so happy it makes me happy just to think about him. :)

Time for a break

Just thought I'd share - finally.
He made it, perfectly, on Jan. 12, 2011.
Kayson Ellis Stanworth, 7 lbs. 0 oz. and 20 inches.
Me bundling him up in his quilt. I love it all around him. He is such a sweet little guy. He's everything I wanted!



I also crocheted this little hat for him - he gets cold so easily!


And now I guess I'll have my "maternity leave" from the sewing machine - I'm actually sending it out for a "tune up" which will take about 3 weeks.

And then... oh my! I'm sure I'll have more ideas and projects stored up that I'll be dying to do!

A set to keep!



A set for my little who to keep!
She was seriously soooo excited.
The oven mitt is the crown jewel in her mind.
Much more excited than with most things.
And I'm a happy mommy!

Toddler Birthday Present


Made this sweet set for a friend's brithday today... just in the nick of time.
Ever one to be last minute about these things.
I love all the ruffles and accessories.
I put them on my little who to see how they fit...
now she's holding the bag of presents and says, "MINE!"
She especially likes that oven mitt.
Can you blame her?
I'll be making her a set next to alleviate any hard feelings about it all.
So if you need a set, it's McCall's M6049.
Happy Saturday Sewing!!
