A Sneek Peek

This was my first attempt at making doll clothes. I went to Joann's fabric store and purchased some vintage reprint patterns for doll clothes. The pattern I chose to use was for a romper but I thought it was to plain and modified it into a swimsuit complete with ruffle on the bum. The first on I did was smaller than the other three. It is for Zoe' soft bodied Madam Alexander doll. The other three are for American Girl dolls. The first one took me almost 4 hours to make. The other three I finished in almost 3 hours. So how do I feel about the whole process? Well, it was fun and I will do it again. However it is very time consuming to make these tiny little outfits. Hopefully the little girls will all have a blast playing with these for years to come. I would do another doll clothes swap again. I will take a picture of all the finished swimsuits tonight and post it tomorrow. I am off to watch a movie. Goodnight all!

Weekend in Pictures

This is my favorite photo of the girls.

The girls ran around and around the front yard. Then they would jump through the sprinkler and run around the yard a few more times. They did this for over an hour until I had them come in the house and...........................................................................................................................

Take a warm and toasty bath. It was a super fun day. I couldn't have asked for a better day or a better weekend. We had so much fun at the pig roast, birthday party and at Carla and Davids reception. The warm and toasty bath was a perfect ending to a perfect day.
