Hello Everyone! It has been a little chaotic wrapping up summer and getting the kids ready for school here. My son is challenged with Asperger's and ADD and I am doing my very best to not show my anxiety for the start of his Middle School Career. He is certainly not a "fan" of formal education. He would prefer attending a school based on a Lego curriculum taught by Jedi's or Transforming Robots. Today also marked the start of my daughters Kindergarten class. She was a little nervous, but came home and told me that it was "fun". I am positive she will enjoy being around kids her own age. I imagine it will be more fun than hanging out with me, picking orders and packaging fabric all day.
With the start of school and perhaps a moment to gather my thoughts in peace, I would love to hear what everyone is working on (or planning). I have requests for little zipper bags from Japanese print cottons and comfy knit dress and legging sets. What are you working on or planning?
Need some inspiration? Take a look at this amazingly adorable Hedgehog applique tutorial and pattern on the
Izzy & Ivy Blog.
What a sweet little way to use up small fabric pieces. I think this would look spectacular in a fall colorway - oranges, reds and browns. Make a matching twirl skirt or ruffle pants - so cute! Plus, you can enter to win the Abbie Applique pattern book or share your Hedgehog project to win a copy of the Abbie pattern. Please
see their blog for full details.
