More sewing





I've been really good about sewing! Here are some completed projects.

If anyone is interested in anything, please let me know. :) I have not put them up on etsy yet, but can!

Also, I'll be headed to the post office on Tuesday to get my swap apron sent off, so I could easily ship any of the lovelies that I've made the last few days.

I also finished making Nora a car seat coat - which is really nothing more than a poncho that has a front opening. It's red fleece and ties with a ribbon. It was a three piece pattern - though, I cut the front up for my car seat purposes, so we could call it a four piece pattern. Still, super easy and went together pretty quick. I made this one out of fleece but I plan on making more of these for her, I especially want to make her a nicer one for the upcoming holidays. I used this pattern.

Handmade Holidays

November is the second annual Handmade Holidays for Sew Mama Sews blog - http://sewmamasew.com/blog2/?p=636 (as a side note, I need to learn to embed links).

So, I'm going to attempt to sew every single day in November (minus maybe Thanksgiving?), which will hopefully give me a great jump on my personal presents, plus an apron swap I'm in right now for a fancy smancy apron - http://flirtyapronswap.blogspot.com/ as well as making some things for sale. Last night, I kicked it all off by buying some supplies, like bias tape. I also finished up a crayon roll up for my sister - for her nephew. I have two more of those for my first official sales - yay! :)

Must fix my camera or figure out why the batteries keep dying so that I can take better pictures than with my phone....
