Here is some of my sewing.

I have been keeping busy with my sewing. Today I made this sling for the baby. Unfortunately, I bought the wrong size rings and this fabric is too thick to fit through nicely. I can get it through but it is very stiff and hard to adjust. The pattern I have used is Elizabeth Lee Nursing classics 202. It is rated easy but I found it very fiddly with the wadding in the side and the pillow of wadding in the top. I also have a thinner cotton muslin fabric (below) that I think will fit into these rings okay. I am going to make this one into a sling tomorrow and hopefully put the rings on it and then buy some bigger ones for the above sling.


Besides these I have prepared my pattern for a skirt and top for the babies baptism. Here is the skirt and top pattern with the fabric I will use for those.


I am hoping to pin and cut these tomorrow and have them done before the baby is born.

Look Who's Home!!!

Emilia!

We were in China over Christmas and New Years and have now been home for a week. We're all still adjusting and getting to know each other, but Emilia is one teeny tiny beautiful little person with a giant and lively personality and we're falling more in love with her each day.

I'm still trying to figure out my work schedule (going from zero to 18 month old over night is crazy!), but please feel free to email (my email address is on the sidebar) me if you're interested in having any of the work you've seen here personalized...or if you need anything else done.
