Current Mood: Cool & Loved

I found a lovely pattern for sewing up some fabric slippers and I fell in love with the idea of wearing my favorite fabrics on my little tootsies! Pattern may be found here: Elle Tie-on slippers. I used some cotton canvas on the outside and the inside is a cute ducks pattern.

I really want to make some with fleece in the inside for extra luxury and softness.

I’ve created a Vimeo account and have uploaded a video! The video is of my dad helping Zoe dance with a little girl. The little girl just ran up to her, grabbed her hands and started dancing with her! Zoe wasn’t really sure what to do and would just stand there . You can watch it here:

So I made a handbag and I love it! I used fabric I bought on ReproDepot.com that I fell in love with when I saw it. I couldn’t help but make something beautiful with it.

My sister bought me a sewing machine for my birthday and I’ve been sewing up a storm! Here’s a shot of a flower on fabric I purchased on ReprotDepot Fabrics. I’m making a handbag following a tutorial for a silk pleated and darted purse. The fabric I used for the outside is 100% cotton and the lining might be polyester, I think. I really love the pattern on the fabric, it has big red clouds and different colored flowers. It’s dreamy.

The flower is gorgeous,
