Spring is in the Air!

My favorite time of year! I love the colors and patterns of Spring!
The kids (including my niece) are all getting pictures taken professionally in a field of Bluebonnets (flowers) next month, so my sister-in-law and I thought it would be cute if the two girls had matching outfits. However, it is not like they are twins, so we thought if we could find the same print with different colors, that might be cuter!


I also made little hair bands out of the ribbon!


Another little spring outfit I have made was for my daughter!


I don't know what that pose is, but she was eating a piece of bacon while modeling! At first this dress looked funky on her because the waistband kept sagging. I thought at first I should make it a little tighter, but after thinking about it I realized it just needed to be tacked down! So I sewed around the middle white edges and it laid down the right way after that!

I said in my last post I had started making some of my own shirts. Well I did not go too Polka Dot crazy, but here is a picture of me in the first one I made. It is my favorite shirt and I wear the heck out of it! I used a stretch knit!
I love the sleeves on this shirt, it has drawstrings with bows and looks really cute in 2-tone!

I have a friend who just gave me A TON of material. I will be very busy trying to figure out cute things to make with it all!
