Bloomers

 Here are the bloomers!  I used the big butt pants pattern made by Rae... but I made them into shorts with elastic at the legs.




 The back:



When next to each other, the pants appear like they will be too big, but I'm not really sure how all this will fit as a set.  The dress was marked as 12 months while the pants are 6-12 months... so hopefully it will all work out ok.  If they stick out the bottom of the dress, that is ok.  Also, I know from experience that the diaper part takes up a lot of space and should pull the pant length up quite a bit... probably to the knees at least, but I'm not sure where the dress will fall.


No matter how they fit together, they turned out so cute! I know for sure that they will be loved and worn, even if it's not together as a set!  :)

In other news, David is babbling A LOT!  He loves talking to black kitty!  Here he is telling black kitty some elaborate story!

I haven't had a chance to wash it yet, but I love it! I'm definitely going to finish the sample as a table runner.  And the table that gets to display this will be one lucky table... Parting shot: We've been reading to him since day 1!   I guess that's what teachers do.

And the crafting has begun!

Before we left Arizona, I had discovered printing my own t-shirts and it was so much fun!  While unpacking, I came across 2 more shirts I needed to make for David before he outgrew this size (probably in Oct we will make the size switch).  I love this little robot, and decided to print opposites on it.  And then the white bike shirt is a repeat from one I made him in June because the original shirt size (18 mo) was one size too small (more like 12 mo fit), even though it was marked as his size (18 mo).  These shirts are the next size up (24 mo), and they are the same size as his current size (18 mo).  I took a sharpie and made the corrections to all the shirt's labels so when the next kid comes along I won't be confused! And here is a random pic of him reading.  More and more lately he asks to read a book!  It's so wonderful!  I love it when he comes running up to me with a book in his hand and wants to sit in my lap.  I stop whatever I'm doi...

My combination weaving and sewing project is coming together, and even better than planned! I’m making the blocks really big so I can make a few baby quilts. The large blocks kind of happened by accident, but I like them! I think I will use 9 per quilt. The quilt will be about 36” across, plus a border probably. I’m not really working off of plans here, just kind of winging it and seeing it in my head as I go. I used strips of fabric that were 3”, 2”, and 1”. I just made sure each side had 1 of each size as I went around. That is why the blocks ended up so large. When I do another one, I might do 2 rows, 1” and 2” all the way around and use more blocks total in the quilt. And now some of little man:
