You ladies are hoppin! I wanted to comment on every post as yall have GREAT taste but I cant do it all before bedtime! You have motivated me to get my tush in gear though!

Polka dotted teaser.....



I had a hard time getting a decent teaser photo this time out.

The pattern has a close repeat and the theme is so obvious my secret partner would know in a SECOND.

My apron fabric (finally!)

My pattern took a WHOLE week to get here, so, even though I got my fabric last week, I waited until today to pull it out of the bag.  Here it is!  I'm so excited to get started!

(Oh, and partner, don't worry, the Lego car isn't part of the apron.  My 3-year-old thought it was a nice addition to the photo and I didn't have the energy to fight him.  :)  )

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.
