My Sewing Addiction
I live in Spokane, WA, and it's pretty cloudy here most days. I decided to get an indoor hobby (sewing), since the weather is so cold here. I make dresses & skirts for my 2-yr old girl. She loves girly dresses & outfits! She's so cute! I really am quite addicted to sewing now, I'm a fabric-aholic as well, my husband thinks I'm crazy. If you need me, you can find me in my sewing room.

Simplicity 2396 Tote Bag
Just whipped up this Tote Bag from the Simplicity Pattern 2396. I used a home dec. fabric by Denyse Schmidt called Dotted Leaves in Flamingo. For the lining I used a pretty green quilting cotton from Joann Fabric.

McCall's 6305
This dress/shorts combo is adorable for Allison in a cotton print combo first by Jenean Morrison called Silent Cinema, and the dots pattern is Amy Butler. I'm in LOVE with this fabric combo, and can't even get enough of it! I bought enough of the silent cinema to make myself a skirt--I'm getting right on that!

Penny by ModKid
I have the Penny and the Penelope patterns made up in a lightweight cotton knit fabric. I think I'll make them again in a more stable knit that won't be so flimsy. I used a cheap one to start with because I'm not really used to sewing with knits--so these are my 'muslins,' which turned out pretty nicely, but the fabric makes it look more like a pajama dress-which is what it can be :).

Simplicity 2171
This was Allison's Easter outfit for 2010. She looks adorable! I made the handbag to go with it, but she doesn't want a bag yet--give her a year!

Modkid Nina Pattern--So cute!
I think this is one my favorite outfits to date! Not only was the pattern, by Patty Young, one of the easiest to make, but the fabric (frolic by Wendy Slotboom for In The Beginning fabrics) is extremely cute, it really brings the outfit to life! Allison is showing it off playing her makeshift drums and playing around the house.

AnnaMaria Horner Study Hall Skirt
This is probably the funnest and cutest thing I've made for myself. I love the fabric, Joel Dewberry Aviary.
