Baby-in-the-hood Jacket!!

This would have to be the most advanced sewing project I have ever tackled and it turned out amazing!!  Check out my baby in the hood jacket I made for baby kaiden.  I used a pattern from my favorite book right now Handmade Beginnings by Anna Maria Horner.  For the most part the pattern was pretty easy to follow - it did show me I need to practice my top-stiching a little more and the next time I make one I think I'll try to make it a inch or two longer.


Buying fabric here in Powell River seems like quite a challenge most days as we only have one fabric store! The one we do have is ran out of the basement of the owners house and everytime I go I always feel slightly uncomfortable... But I was able to pick up this amazing polka-dot blue and green novelty fabric and have been holding on to this bright orange for quite some time, and when I saw the two together I loved it!!


I wish the pictures turned out better - but I was in a bit of a rush...

this could be my most favorite thing I have ever sewn!

here are the amazing quick change pants I made for the beautiful miss alison out of the Handmade Beginnings book by my hero Anna Maria Horner!!

They were so easy to make and the most fun was picking out the fabrics to use since the different ways to put them together could be soo cute!

They are a size 3-6 months because i loved them so much I wanted her to get to wear them for a longer time.

They are reversible!! Which really makes them that much more amazing!! 

These were for sure be a staple for all baby showers and children's birthdays!!

This week really has been CRAZY!! I just got home from an amazing weekend with an amazing crew of youth away at historymaker -- so many lives touched by Jesus, so many dreams planted - really just such an exciting time!!! The theme was stand so I thought I would leave you with a song by Leeland that really touched my heart this weekend.   The bridegroom is coming!!
