Lots of Sewing Projects to Do.


I'm back from a little recharging. I was sick the past few days and I didn't get anything done except for a lot sleeping. I didn't even get on the internet. I was so lazy. I did get some things done around the house that needed to be done. I cleaned out Kimber's closet and packed all of her old clothes. I also went through my closet. There were clothes in there I haven't worn in 4 years. We realized Jason needs a new style. Jeans and a t-shirt are not cutting it for him. Now we're ALL in desparate need of some new clothes. My style goal for myself and Kimber is to ONLY wear handmade or vintage clothing. This week I'm going to dust off my sewing machine and get working on some dresses for Kimber for the Fall.

Here are some cute patterns I want to try for my little one:
