My almost-four-year-old has very definite ideas about what she wants to wear and im always hard pressed to get her in anything but skirts and dresses, so this is what i am aiming at.<br /><br />We took ourselves off to the fabric shop today so she could choose her own fabric and after a little negotiation (hot pink sequins anyone?!) this is what she picked...<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqNpbSt64-W36cjv-FZkIHHQT4HkEB_t0uBDAmAtvzyaIckgF5UKbJn-PJRi0viJYyamfaLcIEIQKm1jd58WS6ktDdC2xlhJabPGfK9KVHKOTIv9DW5GSw_bUDJTV1z3KFdJZ6EBtQoq0V/s1600/IMG_2092.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqNpbSt64-W36cjv-FZkIHHQT4HkEB_t0uBDAmAtvzyaIckgF5UKbJn-PJRi0viJYyamfaLcIEIQKm1jd58WS6ktDdC2xlhJabPGfK9KVHKOTIv9DW5GSw_bUDJTV1z3KFdJZ6EBtQoq0V/s400/IMG_2092.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5661799417847574978" border="0" /></a><br /><br />So with the kiddies tucked up in bed, im sitting down to sew for an hour..... or two!<br /><br />Check back here during the week for the end results...<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-size:180%;" >JESS</span>Jesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01698760396269992614noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105258782344544894.post-33531721921533837452011-10-06T20:59:00.004+10:002011-10-06T21:10:47.115+10:00My Creative Space.....Yet another week flown by and still only managing to blog - just where does the time go?<br /><br />just sneaking in with <a href="http://ourcreativespaces.blogspot.com/">my creative space</a> this week...<br /><br />A certain little miss is having a birthday next week, so i have been working on some little projects as party favors instead of the traditional 'party bags'<br /><br />and what more could little girls want than their own pint sized sparkly mermaiden?!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYO4v58PwO-P2Zy8Id0g57xEIFBWWaEhlOenc6Qo8PSxI0FmbTqcgObGUV-gcd6QWXl2PVsYlW2q3rfNS_oW-ytWP6iOOj1VQsTlZmtxDMsgG6AFGyshe5bKMW-cOHuLd1Cn-H-xg0lv2p/s1600/IMG_1945a.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYO4v58PwO-P2Zy8Id0g57xEIFBWWaEhlOenc6Qo8PSxI0FmbTqcgObGUV-gcd6QWXl2PVsYlW2q3rfNS_oW-ytWP6iOOj1VQsTlZmtxDMsgG6AFGyshe5bKMW-cOHuLd1Cn-H-xg0lv2p/s400/IMG_1945a.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5660334814970365010" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd8I-VsUg_j9PvW2koTg8057jkxYpVmZ8kcbfTReHiDrqX8-cdoE6kuDbfxgK3vNBTd5-E3YGRLiDbIxsC8nUiWOCT9HJuYxstzlbKS8txRnpntHrIiCONtkURFYzI2WCNsVrjcnxNlRqX/s1600/IMG_1949a.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgd8I-VsUg_j9PvW2koTg8057jkxYpVmZ8kcbfTReHiDrqX8-cdoE6kuDbfxgK3vNBTd5-E3YGRLiDbIxsC8nUiWOCT9HJuYxstzlbKS8txRnpntHrIiCONtkURFYzI2WCNsVrjcnxNlRqX/s400/IMG_1949a.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5660333257617944434" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />These little ones will be finding new homes with our party guests!

<br />
<br />busy busy here getting ready for my first ever market - Don't ask me what i was thinking booking myself in for a market just 3 months after having bub.
<br />
<br />Never the less, i have been sewing, sewing, sewing every chance i get so in my creative space this week im embarrassed to say that this is the state of my craft desk...

<br />I've never been much good at sticking to just one project at a time so in the midst of making headbands, hairclips, earrings and various other bits for the market i also decided to start a crocheted cot blanket for the little one - so sitting in front of the TV of a night i am working on making 30 of these...
