Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

"It's a word you say when you don't know what to say."

Well, I don't know what to say because I'm just so freaking happy. I sent off my first etsy order! Also? I delivered an on-island order, finished the purple project, and received another custom order.

The purple project I was working on is done and will be delivered soon. Want to see it?

Coordinating Mother-Daughter Aprons!

I had so much fun working on this order. Not just the actual cutting and sewing, but also the thought process that went into designing them - designing them to coordinate and not be exactly the same apron; and also consider factors like a little girl is constantly growing, so how do I make hers grow with her, at least for a little while. I want to make more.

I hand stitched a flower onto the upper right corner. Cute no? It isn't visible in the picture above because I thought it would be cute to hold a whisk in my hand for the picture and I didn't even consider that a thin wire whisk would be able to totally block it out of the picture.

My client is about the same size as I am and her daughter is 3 and Katelyn is 4, so it was nice to be able to do mock fittings at home.

I want to make more aprons! And I want to make dresses! And I want to make all these other things that I just don't have enough time to make. Do I sound crazy? I think I might be.

I love making things!

I just wish I had more time to make the things I love to make. But for now, the shop is stocked. Check it out!

I am working on a project that involves the color purple! More to come when I'm done.
