So, it's been a while! I haven't been neglecting my creative side, just working a lot and unwinding. We've got 2 grandsons and another one on the way. My step-son and his wife are also expecting but we don't know what we're getting!
I've made quite a few things but haven't taken pics of the finished projects. I've made a t-shirt quilt, lap quilt, girl's purses, appliqued pillows, painted shoes, baby bibs, neck pillow animals, etc. Below are a few pictures of the finished products.
My favorite project was a dress/tunic I made for my daughter using the Simplicity
Dottie Angel pattern. Love, love, love it! She'll be home from college this weekend and if it fits, we'll be picking more vintage fabric designs and making the various styles!
