Sometimes you have work on the necessities

Part of me didn't want to make a new post and bump down the photo of my daughter holding my hand. She is growing up way to fast! Do you know that she is turning 3 years old in less than a week?!?!

I apologize for the lack of creativity in my handmade Monday but it was a necessity. L has outgrown all of her pjs that I made her in the fall and I needed a few new pairs of pants myself. Dh also got his own motorcycle pair but I didn't get them in the photo because he loves them so much that I'm going to have to steal them to wash them!
The 2 middle pairs are mine and the two outer pairs are L's. The frogs on the left are the very last of this flannel that L has had at least 3 pairs out of! Her monkey's are quite done yet, they need elastic and hemmed but I made a pair just like them for a birthday gift over the weekend.

Handmade Monday

I love to give handmade gifts, they are something special from the heart. I wanted to show you this things I made that were gifted over the weekend.
I am addicted to this skirt pattern right now, it's from Ottobre 1/2006 #12. A light blue Old Navy t-shirt was sent with it to complete the outfit. Fabrics were in my stash but they were purchased at Hobby Lobby maybe a year ago.

Sewing for a boy is a huge challenge for me, only have a little girl, so I finally settled on a tutorial from Saltwater Kids. The t-shirts were from Walmart and both fabrics, fishing lures and baseballs were in my stash.

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope that you get to spend the day with the one(s) you love!

My daughter has been telling us Happy Valentine's Day all day! And she loves things that come from the heart. Her daddy made her a paper heart valentine and she has been carrying it around all day!
