Today is a Great Day

Today is a Great Day as the universe shares a little space for a new life to emerge and begin its journey.

I am so excited. My sister is having her baby TODAY!!! I have been holding out posting anything about the project I have been working on because it's for her. And I didn't want her to see it posted here first and spoil the surprise. But since she is at the hospital as I write this, I can safely assume she will not be on the computer for the next week or so until I can give it to her (I think she will be a little preoccupied).

Now, to prepare you for the unveiling of the blanket I would like to tell you how difficult it was for me to make it. I didn't have a pattern so I had to comprise my own measurements, seam allowance and overall construction. It would have been a breeze for a well seasoned sewer/seamstress but not for me. However, I completed it, and I am proud of myself for that.

The blanket is Doggies and Dots: one side is dots with a doggie border and the other side is doggies with a dot border.

P.S. I just got a text: the baby is 6 lbs 10 oz. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm an Auntie!!!!!

Dear Blog....

Dear Blog,

I'm so sorry I've been neglecting you the past couple weeks. I know you don't want to hear excuses or the elaborate story about my sewing machine braking down. So, I promise to make more of an effort to update you, add photos, and maybe a review.
What do you say? Will you please forgive me for my lack of attention?

Sincerely,

Your creator

Fashion, Flowers, and Food

Saturday had all the makings of a great BBQ: great food, great company and great weather. Today I'm posting photos of flowers from the fam's garden and the top 3 picks for my BBQ attire.


This little summer dress I picked up second hand. It's made of light weight cotton, the bright print livens up this classic shirtdress. In the future I will throw a yellow belt around the waist and wear neutral colored flats to give it an Anthro inspired look.

Raspberries!

This was the outfit I wore to the BBQ. It's composed of the Assemblage Tank from Anthropologie , a vintage belt, my couture skirt, and yellow cutout flats from ciao bella.




This outfit looked sloppy, so naturally I didn't wear it. The dress is Converse One from Target, the cardigan is Three Dots from Anthropologie, and the belt is Linea Pelle from Anthropologie. Maybe it would have looked better sans belt... Oh, well.
