I'm sewing again, and I'm so excited! Why did I start back after a year? First, I'm no longer working for Covenant so I may actually have the time. Second, I found something I want to make (more about that later). And third, I had a mini breakdown Sunday, and the conclusion Jamie and I drew was that I need a hobby (read: me time). We got called out of church yet another week because my sweet little boy just loves his mommy! He will only stay with me, Jamie and my mom, which is hard on me at times when I want to do something like worship my Lord in church. Once I was in his classroom, he played in the floor with the rest of the children, smiling at everyone, only stopping to check every few minutes to make sure I was still there. Little stinker! I sure do love him, though!
Ok, so what am I making? Well, lately I've seen kids sporting shirts with fabric appliques. I've seen some with necktie appliques (for boys), some with monogramming and some with numbers to celebrate the child's birthday. I think those are so cute, so I'm going to try making a few for Micah. I have some cute sock monkey fabric (see blog header) and some ECU fabric that I want to use. Now I just need to go buy him a couple of t-shirts and some materials and we'll be set. I'll show pictures when I'm done. Yay!
And kudos to Micah who now eats five times a day, dropped the dreamfeed, and takes a bottle with no problems. And his favorite word is yayayayayayayayayayayayayayayaya....

I'll be using you for those appliqued shirts. They are adorable! Good seeing you and little man in kindermusik this morning!
Girl, if they turn out as easy as I hope, I'll hook you up!
Love those appliqued shirts! Esp the tie ones:) They have some garanimals shirts at Walmart that are cheap and good to use for that kind of thing:)
Thank you, Shelley! I went to Target today and didn't find anything that would work. I will try Wal-Mart this weekend.
