First Day of Spring

Be out of town for the next four days. See y'all later!

A Visit to the Beach

O Lord my God! When I in awesome wonder

Consider all the works Thy hands have made,

I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,

Thy pow'r thro' out the universe displayed,

Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee;

How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

Then sings my soul, my Savior God to Thee;

How great Thou art, how great Thou art!

Gone Dotty

Morning to all! I finally got a new zipper foot for my machine and have really enjoyed using it!

I used to hate polka dots. I guess I've gotten over that now.

Pattern: Simplicity 3881

Materials: Everything came from my stash! I think the fabric is from Hancock's.

The ruffle.

Linen Headbands

Pattern: Heidi Headband from Bend the Rules Sewing by Amy Karol

Don'cha love linen?

Olivia really wanted a pony for her birthday, a real one that she could ride on and couldn't it live in the tree house?

Pattern: Kid's Drawing Softie from Stitched In Time by Alicia Paulson.

I added the embroidery to the big yellow circles because they just looked so blank and inviting.

I have a habit of stuffing things a bit too liberally.

O for Olivia.

I think she liked him.
