Babies, Dresses, and Baseball ...

Welcome to a new week.  It's been a busy one but not a lot of sewing.  I did make these little dresses a couple of weeks back, and finally got them gifted and the Momma's got me some pictures.

I had to make Ivy Rose a second one because the first one was too big.  I made it by the 0-3 months pattern and she was only just over six pounds so it swallowed her whole!  I cut it down just a little and made her another and it was a perfect fit.  (She also got a bib, which Sadie does not need)

Here are my sweet baby girls in their matching dresses.

And a couple more pics, just for good measure ... 

Our Gabbie-Lou-Who also had her very first ever baseball game on Saturday.  She plays with the Field of Angels league.  

Great picture of Gabbie and her "buddy".

Monday Update .......

Real clever title for this post huh?  I haven't blogged much lately.  I have been busy and have several finishes, but not much time for blogging.  

First, my greatest accomplishment (well, ok, my daughter's accomplishment, but let's not split hairs ok?) 

Miss Ivy Rose
7/29/14 - 4:50 pm
6 lb 10 oz - 19 inches

Gabbie-Lou-Who loves her.  

She (and her parents) came to church with us today and afterward to lunch at my mom and dad's.  Gamma got lots of rocking time while her momma and daddy ate their lunch.

I've made matching dresses for Ivy and Sadie. 

(This is Sadie's, I've already gifted Ivy's) 

And my newest project   .... A whole herd of elephants!!

I am addicted to these creatures!!

(They are made from this pattern from Sweetbriar Sisters for Camelot Fabrics)
