I'm up to my eyeballs in sewing projects, and I love it!
I'm about 50% done making a custom order for 6 art smocks for a preschool in Michigan ... more on that once they ship.
Emily wants to be a butterfly princess, and needs a tutu. I went to purchase one from etsy, and discovered no one makes tutus for a 6 year old who wears a size 8-10 ... so I purchased 10 yards of tulle, searched the internet for tutorials, and I'm hopefully less than an hour from finishing her tutu/skirt - just in time for tomorrow night's first costumed event!
Sam's Diego shorts are huge on him and they need a small piece of elastic put in the back. He is so excited to be Diego this year ... so excited! It's been on my sewing list for three weeks now and tonight it MUST be done.
I'm also trying to get baby blankets, nuzzies, pillowcases and art smocks made made for my shop ... I've decided to do two back to back shows in November on the 10th, so I'm trying hard to stay focused and sew my little fingers to the bone! I'm making progress, but withe very thing else that's going on, it's painfully slow!
I could use your help though, Tuesday I found out I won a yard ($9.10 value) of fabric from Sew Mama Sew - and got the emailed details about it yesterday. I have until Thursday to choose my yard. I only had 30 minutes yesterday - to browse their website ... so many beautiful fabrics. I've ordered from them before than they are fantastic! Please help me choose what ONE yard (I know, only one) I should have them send me.
Wish me luck, I'm off to finish sewing my layers and layers and layers of pink tulle!

Funny. I was up late finishing a costume too. I like the starflower one from Amy Butler. I think you'd be happy with almost any fabric from them though. Have fun with all of your projects!
Pick just one? Okay, then I have to go with Apples and Pears Brown (Alexander Henry) although I love so much from that line.
