A little bit of sewing


 Have been sewing some items lately for others. Made a dance bag for our friend Payton. She needed a tutu bag for dance class and I kind made up my own version. It's a bag pattern I have been wanting to try and added the tulle in. Think it turned out pretty good. I love the heart fabric on the inside.
Not too shabby. Perfect for a little ballerina.

 Made a tie bib. This was completely my own pattern. Not the greatest picture of it, but I lined the back with nice soft cotton. The blue tie was Jamies tie for Matt's wedding that got re-purposed into a little clip on tie for our handsome friend Marcus, for his one year pictures. (how is that possible already?)
And re-purposed an old Oskgosh dress that Audra wore a lot when she was little. Eleanor wore it a little, but outgrew it pretty quick. Well the bodice part still fit, it was just way too short. So I chopped the bottom part of the dress out and added some girly flowery material that matched relatively well with the jean pattern. It turned out really well and Eleanor looks adorable in it. Yay. It was one of my favourite things, so glad we can still see it in rotation.
