Sew much fun and other projects!


Okay so I have been saying that I would post some of my projects on our blog including my skirts that I am selling to get money for a serger. I am actually only making the skirts for family but the shirts I am making for anyone. Anyway, I hope you enjoy. Sorry the pictures aren't the greatest.
Love-Rachel
My Bath Toy Bag. I found this idea on a Blog and so I set out to make my own. It is so nice to have a place for the toys where they can dry out and not get all moldy.

My friends and I had a girls night out and we decided to make some cute purses. It was so simple and way cheap to make.

This is my skirt and shirt that I am making. I saw something similar to this skirt and thought I bet I could make that so I created my own pattern and just sewed away. When I was done I thought I need a shirt to go with it so I came up with this cute little shirt (I bought the white shirt and added scrap fabrics to dress up the shirt.) I made the outfit as a birthday gift for my good friend's little girl who is 2 years old so it is too big for Abigail but it kind of gives an idea of what it looks like on a body. (Thanks Rebecca for some of this cute fabric that you gave me.)



This is another of my shirts. It was just a fun thing with scrap fabrics. Also the little shirt and tutu Abigail is where in the pictures on our blog I made (just incase you wanted to see).
Yeah this isn't a sewing project but I was really excited about this one. I have been talking about making a wall with our travel pictures and I finally did it. I think it turned out okay.


Well, thanks for letting me share a little of what I have been doing when Abigail is in bed. You guys better post some things soon or this is all you will get on the blog:). Love you all!
