Here's the pinky side. 'Cuse the face - she was eating crystallised ginger;-)
Apron leftovers were turned into table napkins - slowly building up our stash of these.
And one for the other girl.
Heidi Headbands: Amy Karol's Bend-the-Rules Sewing.
Reversible Apron: Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing.
Letter Satchels: Amanda Blake Soule's Handmade Home.
Five year old boy's need a Little Wallet too!
We've had a wet and wild Spring storm at our place over the last two days. Nothing to do but stay inside sewing;-)
I had started to make myself a sunhat from Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing but it became very clear it was going to be too small despite the fact I have a pinhead! So Big Girl scored and loves it!
Sew Liberated's Flora Tunic - using the rest of a thrifted sheet.
A Pillowcase dress from Handmade Home. It's the perfect length for a Big Girl Tunic without chopping any length off it. And yes, from the thrifted sheet set;-) We've got our money's worth.
Another Flora Tunic from leftover Prairie Dress fabric.
A Little House on the Prairie dress with $1/metre fabric from stash.
The full Holly Hobbie look again;-)
Mama's Schoolhouse Tunic in the shirt length - with some cheapy old fabric from deep in the stash. I put hook and eyes across the front of mine so I can close it if I don't want the top underneath to show. 
My Retro Redux Shrug in Cascade 220 from South Seas Knitting.
Frilly Angora-Merino booties from Luxury One Skein Wonders. These are truely teeny. They never would have fitted my babbies' clodhoppers!
It was fun firing up the sewing machine yesterday after a bit of a hiatus - inspired by Meg's patterns arriving in the post this week. So I was able to churn out the three tunics for me and my lil' ladies. It's a good feeling watching the fabric stash decrease too (gotta quickly create some space for more fabric that is arriving in a month or so - eek).
I have been the recipient of more than my fair share of love, encouragement, inspiration and thoughtful goodies through the post from the blogging/online community. Now, it's my turn to share the love!
* A denim cafe apron from Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing. I used the apple pocket from Amy Karol's Bend-the-Rules Sewing. (Once I finished this I really did not want to give it to you. But I'm determined to spread some winter joy.)
* A copy of the latest Winter issue of World Sweet World. I love this new local craft mag!
I love M8's Simple Drawstring Backpack (from Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing). She's going to use it to keep some of her art supplies in...ready for action! I6 almost has one too, once I get a bit of sewing time to finish it off. 
It's given me an urge to crack on with more sewing but unfortunately Spotlight didn't have any Mummy Sewing Time on sale.
Even though our young man is out of daytime nappies (squeeeeeeee) I still get a buzz making soft, scrummy sherpa nappies for other little botties. 
Ah yes, winter is just around the corner. The arrival of the firewood - and disappearance of any discretionary yarn funds up my chimney.
I hope to get a bit more sewing time under my belt this winter as we hibernate inside. Love Lotta's Simple Sewing. Heaps of snazzy, and more to the point, easy projects. I'm also saving for an overlocker - progressing nicely - roll on Mother's Day Sale at my local overlocker store.
I couldn't resist the new Sirdar Hug yarn at my LYS. I bought the sock pattern that went with it with I5 in mind. These were a quick, satisfying knit but, meh, wouldn't do that pattern again. Who really wants to seam socks?
I've been having some even more random and waffley thoughts about my faith while reading Donald Miller's Blue Like Jazz. It's a slightly unsettling but extremely exciting, enjoyable read. I have Through Painted Deserts to listen to on my MP3 player at the gym (oh yeah, maybe I need to get to the gym!).
