Sewing Again!!

I've been sewing again!! YEAH!! This time it was a dress for Tessa - such a cute pattern from Oliver and S. I was turned on to it by Angrychicken awhile ago and I'm nearly done with another dress from their patterns and I've got a third I'm just itching to try! The patterns were brilliant - well done, great directions and FUN!! And best yet - she likes it - really really likes it!


Yes, girlfriend has attitude.



"This will look great if I do an arabesque!" Thank goodness I made the bloomers that go under this!


"I'm done now!" And she played all day in the dirt, in the grass, and on her bike - and she looked great doing it!

Spring was a LOOONG Time Coming

Spring took forever to arrive on this mountain. (Have I mentioned that?) But it's here now and the windows are open and the birds are singing (at 5AM!) and I even have flowers. Exhale! It just feels so good.





And the lilacs smell like heaven!
