SEWING! It is so fun to create all these cute
burp cloths and very relaxing to sew. This morning I took the three boys to Krispy Kreme for breakfast and we dined inside and watched them make the donuts, which we've never done together. After, we went over to the library and played, checked some books out, and met up with the Castillo's. We then headed to a fabric store to pick out some cute(r) fabric and ribbons since I've semi-completed ten and still had fourteen more to do. Amy was a big help in picking out some designs. It's like having four eyes instead of two. She also has different tastes than I do, so she sees cute patterns that I may overlook. We make a great team:) We headed to our house with some lunch. Then we went down to another fabric store for more fabric quarters and ribbons. I am really beginning to love this new hobby. Here are the latest creations. I cannot wait to embroider little Preston's name (or initials) on them!
This is the basic look of the cloths opened up.
Love the blue and white polkas with yellow trim
A fave: the brown designs on the blue, with the brown ribbon trim
Pirates ahoy! A treasure map with black and white polkas for trim
Another fave: Ships, labeled by type under them, with dark blue and white polkas
Boy pattern all the way with different wheels, trimmed in dark blue and white polkas
I really want to make some girly ones, so when I am done with Preston's, I may just do that for the fun of it.
