One more thing!

I went to wrap the poodle skirt and didn't have a box so.... I made a garment bag out of some white wrapping paper. I folded it over, taped down the shoulders, and laced up the sides!

Birthday card

Just had to make a card to match the outfit! I LOVE my cricut expression.

First Birthday

Hey, what do you get a one year old for her birthday that she doesn't already have? A poodle skirt. Got a wild hair this week. Didn't have a lot of money to spend so....... This outfit cost $2 for the shirt, 33 cents for ribbon and $2 for elastic. Not bad for less than $5. I decided that since I couldn't find a snap-bottom t-shirt, I made bloomers. I designed the poodle on the computer and embroidered it then appliqued it on the skirt. Then for fun, I put her initials on the back of the bloomers. Hope her mom likes it!!!!!

Project Linus

Last week Malinda and I made blankets for our local Project Linus one day blanket drive. Malinda and 2 of her friends made blankets out of fleece and sewed a satin binding on it. My quilt was a top that has been looking for a home for a WHILE! I pieced together the back and serged the edge. We took them to Panama to drop them off. We were entered into a drawing for a new sewing machine! We didn't get the machine. Guess we will just have to keep using the 4 machines that we have!!!!
