lazy afternoon sewing

I love afternoons where the babies are napping, miss keira is happily playing on her own (OK, the truth is she was watching her new Little Mermaid dvd and fell asleep watching it)…but you get the picture…the house is quiet and no one needs me. So I whipped up 2 little dresses…this one is going to a little miss having a party tomorrow (not my little miss).


The fabric was a 100% cotton from Spotlight and has a sweet little floral design going on….


and I made this little dress as a sample for my store….I think it will be great to see how the super cute japanese fabrics look made up into items. Gosh I love this fabric and pretty dresses aren’t wasted in this house….


And lastly one of the little onesies I appliqued this week using the super cute Atelier Akiko fabric. I can’t wait till I receive my order of this fabric range from Japan!


Hope you are getting some ‘me’ time too!
