Easter Sunday!!

Well it was Easter yesterday and we had the added joy of having Chad home (even though it was only for a few hours) Here are all three of my wonderful Kids in their homemade (Yes I made them except for Qwades shirt!) Easter Sunday clothes...

I made Qwade's Vest and Pants last week... The vest was easy but the pants.... well... lets just say it'll be a while before I attempt that again...smile~

Qwade Felt left out when I made the girls their clothes so He asked if I'd make him some too.. I did it was really hard but I did it!!!

The Easter bunny visited us and brought Qwade an Automatic Nerf Gun! and a CD player with head sets and a couple pieces of candy!

Here is my Princess (although it would sure be nice if she'd ever just let me do her hair all cute and girly without a huge fight...sigh...maybe one day) This is the best smile from her I could get out of literally 30 pictures... oh well...




The Easter bunny knew just what she wanted... Princess everything earrings, necklace, tea set, wand etc!!

Here is my cutie pie... She was the first one to find her basket and she loved it.. She got a bumble bee dress up stuff and necklace, dress up shoes, earrings etc...



She was as happy as could be, she's just so darn cute.....

Here's my little bumble bee.....

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend...

Help!


Ok to all those who sew! I am looking for a fun and stylish diaper bag pattern that has lots of room for all of my kids stuff like change of clothes, sippy cups, wipes, and a place to put coloring books etc.. My old diaper bag broke so I am thinking of making one to "help with my new found sewing skills" I've been looking at the stores and they all are so cheaply made and can easily rip with the vinyl covering the outer as well as inner linings of the bag! Any ideas would help.. Thanks!


P.S. Can someone explain what interfacing is.. I'm not getting the jest of it!

The Month of March has been a month of many first for me....And this last week was no exception... I have for many months had a nagging feeling that I need to learn how to sew! However I've just kept putting that feeling off because sewing has always been very intimidating and frustrating for me... But I sucked it up and decided to take the plunge! Here are my finished products what do you think did I pass for my first time ever, sewing something other than burp rags......?

My wrap around skirt!


This dress and Atazia's dresses were the first ones I did this last week because they were the easiest and that way I could learn my sewing machine...


Here is the pattern I picked out to make for the girls for their Easter dresses... They both liked the dress but wanted it longer.... so with courage and a few phone calls for help to my mother in law this is the results....










So what do you think?.... Did I pass?
