Bye Bye Sunshine :(

Looks like I'm in for a long weekend of sewing. According to the weather reports we're gearing up for 36 inches of heavy wet snow. Springtime is such a tease here in Colorado. It's warm and sunny and you might actually start to believe that it's going to stay that way. Then Mother Nature thumbs her nose and laughs at you while dumping 36 inches on you. She's lucky she'll never have to come face to face with me or we'd go a few rounds.

Today was very nice - but I pretty much stayed inside all day long. Why do I do that to myself?

As promised, here is another toot little outfit. This one is a pair of romper shorts. It looks so comfortable that if I could get away with wearing them I would sew me a pair in a heartbeat. Something tells me that it wouldn't look quite as cute on me, though. I just love the way her big belly and diapered bum looks when she waddles around. This particular outfit comes in two styles - with a ruffle and without. The one in the picture is obviously without the ruffle. I have several of these little rompers in a couple different sizes. I have one that's 9-12, two that are 12-18 months with ruffles, and a few different colored ones that are 12-18 with ruffles. All are to-die-for cute, if I do say so myself, but it could just be the way my heart thrums when I watch my little cutie pie walk around in them.

This polkadot striped halter dress doesn't happen to be going on my website. I made this specifically for my daughter, but I'm posting pictures anyway because 1) she looks darling in it, and 2) I plan to make similar ones for the website so you can get the idea of what I'm putting out here!

Now this patchwork skirt (not the shirt) will be on the website. Forgive my lack of photography skills (not to mention my unambitious model), but what you can't see is that the skirt has a bit of a flare at the bottom with a rolled hem - I love it because it's so fresh and girlie. I'm working on different shirts that will match it (though I am quite happy with the one I picked up from Target for $4 that she's wearing with it :P).
