kcwc – day 3

October 11, 2012

Bought more fabric…lilac needlecord for the skinny jeans.  Actually, Ma bought it…thanks Ma.  Button is thrilled.

But not as thrilled as she is with the new hightops that Ma and I bought her to go with this outfit.

They are from Next and Button nearly exploded when she saw them!  I may have to get her the pink ones too…and make her a pink outfit to match.

However some progress was made.  I taped together the jeans pattern and cut out the fabric. But it was so dark in sewing loft last night I couldn’t get a decent picture for love nor money.

Today, however, I’m actually sewing.  The Oh Suzanna smock is coming together nicely. It’s a delightfully simple sew.

And we found out today The Boy isn’t having surgery tomorrow so we all feel a little lighter…for now.

Back to the loft.  Pictures soon I promise.

    Oh, have I missed something about The Boy? It’s one of the hardest things for a parent to watch their children go into surgery. You can enjoy doing some more sewing instead

      He has double divergent squints which are to be straightened. It’s such a minor surgery, and may impact on his 3D vision in a positive way, but still awful!
      Sewing is much nicer!

    Wish we had Next here …. my two would then have the perfect reason to learn how to tie laces…..

      They are pretty cool, but she’s not remotely interested in doing anything to the laces but pull them all out…
