I made it and I love it

Ok so I recently discovered that my mom still has her old sewing machine so I decide that I have a lot that I want to do. Sewing is in my blood. My grandma used to work for singer and she made all of my moms clothes growing up. She is amazing and can do anything. I remember my mom making a lot of my clothes when I was little too, so I wanted to try my hand at it though I haven't really sewn anything serious in about 12 years. This last week I made two skirts for Sadie, though I didn't have a pattern, lets just say I have a few things to work out before they are church worthy. Thanks to wonderful friends that are very up on whats going on in the craft and blog worlds I was able to find a few more ideas for things that turned out much better.
Here are the fabric cube and rings. One of the rings is really more of a triangle ( I got carried away while stuffing it).



I think that Sadie likes them.








So thanks everyone for being so awesome. Oh and doesn't she look cute in her new piggy pj's.

WOW! Is all I can say! They are way too cute! You should teach me one day! Are you moving back to Rexburg in the near future? I have been meaning to text you. So if you could text me before I can text you that would be wonderful! I just get so so busy.
