While the Cat's away, the Mouse will play!

Monday, June 8, 2009
DH was gone this weekend on his manly trip to the Boundary Waters. While he was roughin' it with the guys in the cold, rainy, windy wilderness, I was the cozy environment we call home hangin' with all 3 little ones and sewing until my heart's content!

I had amazing success and created a few goodies!

First, it took me a couple days to whip these out, but I got 3 Emmeline Aprons done for Christmas gifts. Sorry for the crummy photo. It's the best I could do this morning.

I also managed a pair of TDK (that darn kat) undies. They're a size 4, so they are just a wee bit too small for J. That's okay, I have size 6's planned for this week! I just needed to try the pattern. I also tried the Ottobre boxer briefs but it turned out hideous. I will be modifying my MO on that one. I figure it out though, during M's late night feeding. That's when I think things through.
Finally, my fav project of the weekend: The Amy Butler Nappy Bag!



I LOVE it!! I was able to purchase the pattern online Wednesday, the gal shipped it on Thursday, I roughed it through a trip to the fabric store w/3 antsy children on Friday, the pattern arrived on Saturday just before lunch, and by midnight Saturday, I had a new diaper bag!!! It's great! I can't wait to use it today. :)
Well, I have plans to sew undies for J and trainers for K this week. We'll see how it goes. :) Oh, I'm also knitting the last of 3 skirties for mommyz on diaperswappers. What a great mama!
