A New Testimonial From an Old Friend!

My sweet husband surprised me with a new sewing machine. Here are my first two projects:
This is one of those pre-smocked panels. I just had to sew it up the back and add some ribbon ties. EASY!
Kait does not look happy in this picture, but actually she was thrilled. I used to different turquoise and lavendar prints. Click on this one for a closer look!
I can't wait to sew more!

Kaitlyn's new skirt: simply a series of wide rectangular stripes divided by triangular godets. The fabric looks like denim, but it is actually a light weight cotton with a denim print. In this picture the skirt was not ironed, but it really hangs nicely and was very simple to make!
Here is the 3 tiered dress I made for Hannie. If you look very closely at the picture on the left you will see two cute buttons sewn on the front and a third button hanging from the top of the hanger. Kaitlyn found these buttons and I was pleased that they matched the fabric so well. The top one on the dress is a part of a flower. The bottom one is dots and the one on top is stripes and I sewed it onto a thick hair elastic so she can wear it in her hair. Looks cute!
Can you find the mistake on the dress??? I didn't notice it until I was all done, but I don't t hink it is too noticeable on her.
Sisters: ready to go out for birthday tea party!
But first, they take their new garments for a test spin! If it's not twirly it's not nearly as pretty, you know!

For her 17th birthday last month, Jocelyn "needed" a special kind of a gift! So, a Bundled in Prayer afghan seemed to be the perfect gift. So with a little intel from her mom and sister we picked just the right colors.
Here's the trademark heart in the upper right-hand corner.
This afghan is enormous. When folded in quarters it was still big enough to invite a cuddle from a big almost 10 year old boy!
Here she is opening it EARLY the morning of her birthday:
I hope she knows how dearly she and her family is loved.

When a lady from MOMYS.COM lost her husband last month, the ladies commissioned me to make an afghan for her and one for her newborn baby son (the youngest of 6 young children):
This afghan is called "Mended Hearts"
Please pray that these gifts will bring some measure of comfort to Kendra and her family.

None of these items are for sale, but I wanted to post some of my recent sewing projects just for fun!
Maybe in the future I will have the confidence to add things like these to what I offer here, but for now I will stick with the crocheted items!
Isn't this the cutest fabric? Jacque sent it to me! Thanks friend!
This is the first project that I made with the fabric, but there is a lot of it left!
A fun, reversible apron with an ants on a picnic tablecloth fabric on the back!
I enjoy making reversible items. I started making reversible dresses a few years ago and now Hannie's little friends request a "Magic Dress" as birthday gifts!
This particular style of dress looks sweet with a white tee in the Summer and a turtleneck in the winter!
This is the bodice of a dress I am working on for Kaitlyn. (It will have sleeves eventually!)
This is what it will (HOPEFULLY) look like when it's done!
This is the matzah cover I made for our Passover. It has an inside pocket to divide out the traditional three pieces of matzah and a small separate pouch that snaps shut to hold the Afikomen. I like the way it turned out.
Keep checking back... soon I will be posting pictures of my latest crocheting projects!

Faith, Family and Friends Afghan COMPLETED
|
Here is the finished product. I actually finished nearly a month ago, but this is the first chance I had to upload photos to my computer!
The edge is slightly ruffled so it does not lay flat, but other than that it turned out nicely!

Rosetta Stone has been the #1 foreign language curriculum among homeschoolers for a while -- next week they are unleashing a brand new curriculum, and you can WIN the *all new* Rosetta Stone Homeschool Version 3… FOR FREE!
This is a $219 program (and believe me it's worth every penny!) and the winner gets to pick from any of these 14 languages: Spanish (Spain or Latin America), English (American or British), Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Irish, Hebrew, or Russian.
This will also include a headset with microphone, and students will participate in lifelike conversations and actually produce language to advance through the program. Rosetta Stone still incorporates listening, reading and writing as well, in addition to speaking. Many homeschoolers requested grammar and vocabulary exercises, and with Rosetta Stone Homeschool Version 3, they're included! For parents, the new Parent Administrative Tools are integrated into the program and allow parents to easily enroll students in any of 12 predetermined lesson plans, monitor student progress, and view and print reports.
To win this most excellent program -- in the language of your choice -- copy these (blue) paragraphs and post it in (or as) your next blog post -- then to enter the contest, go to the original contest page HERE: http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/JenIG/501132/ and leave a comment with the link showing where you blogged about it. And please make sure the link works to get back to the original contest page when you post it. And good luck! The winner will be picked randomly on March 26, and will be notified thru the link they left to their blog pg. And if you have more than one blog, you can post them and enter those separately for more chances to win. Yay for free stuff!
