Some things are just too beautiful or too cute to pass up; note this cactus flower, even against the asphalt of the parking lot in front of Los Tres Amigos, a local Mexican restaurant, brilliant in its beauty.
And then there is Sophie in her new dress showing off all her lovely new teeth. No doubt about it, she's a happy little girl.As for me, I've been sewing...duplicates of what I showed in last post only in different fabrics, a skirt in the same print as the peacock looking fabric only in more subtle shades of brown, and a dress, in the same fabric as the blue dress only this time in a reddish purple, with a lavender trim. I cut it a size smaller too and am a lot happier with the fit.
Finished knitting Sophie's dress and decided she had to have it right away, she's getting so big, she probably won't be able to wear it very long.
I feel as if I have become a sewing fanatic, which is slightly refreshing after a terrifically long drought of not sewing; I have one more dress cut out already and bought fabric for another skirt, although my idea at the time was to add a skirt to a t-shirt and make a dress of it (?) but may be losing my nerve. Any thoughts?
Despite the fact that it is way too hot to do anything except trying to stay cool and visit with friends, it is a nice feeling to know I'm getting a few things done.
