JonJons

I've been working on getting a pattern just like I want it for JonJon's. I like them with butt0n shoulders and snaps in the crotch. Joe is my model.

I have a cute purple gingham set cut and ready for sewing for Abby.

New Outfits

I have three pink and black polka

dot/striped outfits ready. From left to right, toddler size 3, toddler size 2, and toddler size 1.

I also have 7 sundresses in progress. I have one completed.

I am gathering fabrics, ideas, and techniques for a winter jacket I want to have ready in the fall. It will be very busy, using 10 or 12 different fabrics, and 2 or 3 different sewing techniques. There will be applique, chenille, embroidery, and quilting.

I am setting a goal for myself of at minimum of one hour sewing each day.

I threw out my iron.

I threw my iron out the back door this evening. Actually, I gingerly set it out on the patio away from the house. It was smoking terribly. I was afraid it was going to going to burst into flames. I now need a new iron. I bought that iron when Lowes opened the Pineville store.

I have some more sewing to do!

I can't believe the response the clothes got at school today. I have to replenish my stock. I could have sold twice as many sets as I had with me today.

I've been busy this weekend!
