Fiiiinnaallyy!

ooohh goody goody gum drops, my "cook book" arrived from the States today! Mind you the posty knocked on the door at 7.30 this morning to deliver it  :S  lol

I know my receivee is gonna be SO shocked...  lol.... I really did think outside the square this time ;)  *pats self on back*

Personally, i think spotlight is stalking me. Yep, yesterday they sent me a voucher for $40 off if i spend over $100 (lmao, fooools). Convenient doesnt one think??  teehee, so i spent a good hour buttering hubby up with promises of lunch at our fav Vietnamese eatery if he lets me loose for an hour or two in the store....

So,

PATTERN READY?.. check


















COOK BOOK?......check

POLKA DOT MATERIALS?... on da way! 

Now, wheres that coffee..........

Sneak Peek and some Happy News

Here's a little sneak peek for a special swapper. I am so glad I made this early, and that my swap partner didn't really have any preferences (whew...that made things MUCH easier on me). I love these vintage prints (polka dots are small, but there are dots!), and I hope she likes them too.



And this is the reason why I am glad I got this done early:


Our little guy, Jude, was born last Wednesday (almost a week overdue), weighing in at 10 lbs, 9 oz. Needless to say, now that I have 3 little boys, and I can't sit for very long....I might be a bit too busy to sew for a while.

Sew Cherry polka dot cute.


I am done! yes I know it's early in the game but the next two weeks are super busy for me.
So I wanted to get done as soon as I could so I wasn't late.
Not to mention I was very excited to make this little number once I had the idea in my head.

I was worried how the lace would look on the collar
and the pocket.
Once the apron was done, I was pleased that it was the right choice.

In fact I was so pleased with how it turned out I made one for my self.
Now I just hope my vintage loveing gal  likes it!
