Miss G

Miss G turn 4 this weekend. Last Friday I started sewing a Hat for her using this tutorial. I bought enough material to make for all girls using Sweet Water fabric; the other material was a repurpuse a kaki skirt that I ruined with a highlighter. Miss G saw the material and asked me "mommy are you making me a dress too" So I felt very obligated to make her a dress. so here is the result:
Miss G cumplio 4 anos este fin de semana. El viernes pasado empece a hacerle un sombrero usando este tutorial. Compre suficiente tela para hacerles a todas sombreros, use tela de Sweet Water un rosita muy lindo con estrellas, la otra parte del sombrero es tela que reutilice de una falda de lona que se me aruino con un marcatextos. Cuando Miss G me vio cosiendo me pregunto si tambien le iba a hacer un vestido. asi es que me vi obligada a sacrificar mi projecto para hacer a una linda nina feliz y esto es lo que salio:
I love the picture Miss G had no problem posing for me!
Me encanta la foto Miss G no tubo problema en posar para mi!

Have a great day!

Chic Cocktail Swing Coat

This is another pattern from Heidi and Finn. Darlette made this version in black for miss C recital. The light does not let the details of the coat show, but it turn out just cute and beautiful.
Darlette used black wool material.
Este es otro pattron de Heidi and Finn. Darlette hizo esta version en negro para el recital de la senorita C. La luz no permitio que mucho de los detalles se vieran, pero salio muy lindo. Darlette uso pano de lana negro.
Have a great Tuesday

Sweet Wrap Reversible Dress (my version)

Okay Darlette made the dress like month and a half ago right? I started the same week but I just finish making (2) them last Saturday night just on time for church yesterday. It was hard to take pictures so I got this only okay one.
Se acuerdan que Darlette hizo este vestido hace como un mes y medio? Bueno yo lo empece la misma semana y apenas termine de hacerlos (2) el Sabado en la noche justo para el Domingo para ir a la capilla. Fue dificil tomarles fotos a las hijas pero logre rescatar esta.
Since this was my first sewing for long time I can say I missed my sewing machine so much and just working with fabric. My problem is that my new sewing room is not calling me. So I took my sewing machine and everything else that cones with it upstairs to the kitchen. I really was in heaven. :)
Este projecto es el primero que hago desde hace mucho tiempo y realmente me di cuenta cuanto extrano coser. El problema es que mi cuarto de costura simplemente no me inspira para estar alli; asi es que tome mi maquina y todo lo necesario y lo lleve a la cocina y alli trabaje. parecia estar el el cielo :)
Have a great day
