new sewing stuff!








so, i have been busy in my sweet little spare time.  which is so rare, i swear it flies by before i realize.  made some gifts for a friend's children.  new baby and 3 year old girl.  the onesie has an applique bird over the heart.  i made a little muslin bag for it to fit nicely into.  even has a little bird on the outside!  i am thinking about selling these at a show in april.  we'll see how many i can get done.  the art smock is from bend the rules sewing by amy karol.  i love her book and am really pleased at how this turned out.  the fabric is so fun and youthful and the pockets are actually from sheets we got while visiting this couple when they lived in alaska.  so, there is a bit of recycling thrown in with sentimentality.  first time to do bias tape, i am embarrassed to admit.  but it was fine.  it will get easier the more i do it!  does anyone dig this?  tell me what you think...
