It is about time I update, but there isn't much so I'll just have to add some pictures.

I decided I would try making another pair of pants for Maxwell. It worked out pretty good in the material department. I had finally decided to trim my long curtains and had so much extra I was able to make a pair of pants. When i first bought the curtains I made pillow cases with them, or rather, my mom made them.

Since Easter is coming up I decided I would take a leap of....something, and try the challenge of making a dress for Abby. I bought the pattern (it said 'easy' on it) and enough material to make two dresses. I decided to do a 'trial' dress first and the Easter dress after I'd made all the mistakes on the first dress. It's a thought anyway. Abby picked out the material. Keep in mind, I haven't made a dress since I had my mom's help in 4H long long ago. I did try making a skirt in junior high home-ec. class. That was a horrible horrible idea, so horrible that I've been afraid to hem ever since.

jenny that is awesome! I don't dare try to sew anything. It's a long term goal that I have, but good for you it looks great!
