Well they are these stinking cute short/leggings/ruffles/lace/under your skirts thingys!!! Seriously adorable So if you want to stop by go check out her blog and she will give you all the details. And then after you buy yourself like 4 pairs of mollies check out their new cute accessories and jewelry!

How can I cutfiy this couch set????? Blahhh!

Ohh How I have missed you!

My Hubby went fishing Friday night so out of pure boredom I pulled out my machine! and oh how I have missed her! Good old Walmart was having a bolt sale and I found this striped fabric. I got 5 yards of it for 5.00. Can't beat that. So I have like a million ideas to make with it. But first up was a dress for Moo. Although she looks extremely unhappy in these pictures, she absolutely loved the dress.

To make it I just measured her bust and length and then cut the fabric one and half times her width and then to the length that I wanted. Then I hemmed the edges and used my favorite elastic thread for the top and the middle. After I took about 2 inchwides strips and braided them for the straps.

You can't see the dress too well in these pics, but I LOVE the way it turned out. I'm debating if a 28 year old mama would look good in one! And of course every dress needs accessories so I made a head band too. Of course we had to have a flower headband but then I wanted a giant ruffle one too. And I get what I want so I made one! :) For the headband I used satin and wrapped it around a plastic headband hot gluing along the way.

I didn't attach the ruffle to the headband because now I can interchange flowers and such! also the ruffle would work without a head band and maybe you can even get a little freaky and embellish a shirt or something!! Anyways it felt WAAAYYY too good to be sewing again! I need to do that more.

Where am I???

I'm really not sure what my deal is I am a hit and miss blogger! I love to blog and craft but I go in these weird phazes where one minute I love it and and can't wait to post what I have been working on and then next minute if I see another blog I will probablly throw up!! I know I'm weird. I have never claimed to be normal though so I guess it's ok. We recently put our house on the market and between that, and summer I have had ZERO time to get extra crafty let alone bloggy. But lately I have been having the itch to create! I have a few projects up my sleeve that I have been dying to try so maybe I'll be back!!
