Can't Stay Away

I go to Hancock Fabric's at least twice a week. Maybe more. I already went on Monday, but I could resist going in again today. They had a sale on McCalls patterns this week and I just had to get some. It was such a good deal! And now I can't wait to try some of these new projects out! But insert problem- not quite sure I know how to use these type of patterns correctly so I may be on the phone with my wonderful sister-who is studying Fashion Merchandising and will be a jr. this fall- a LOT! I have looked at patterns like this before and been tricked, but maybe since I am no longer brand new at this I might have a chance... But still super excited to try out some new things.

Once Apon a Time....

So, once upon a time I used to write on here! I should be keeping up with this better because it is summer break, BUT  I have been enjoying my lazy days. Right before the end of school I made 3 dresses for a friend at work. She ordered lady bug pillowcase dresses for her twin nieces and a cute heart print pillowcase dress for her daughter. Since then I have been relaxing at home. On Saturday I attempted my first tutu and it turned out great! I made it for ZG and she picked the color red. I used red and white tulle and it fits her schools colors. I have been busy making a Facebook page for Sew Smitten and trying to figure that out...you can find the link on my Facebook. Become a fan please!

I'm about to go to lunch with Bridget, ZG and L. After that we will head to the one and only fabric store in Searcy, Hancock Fabrics. I'm making ZG a dress, and super excited to get back sewing!
