Projects in process

Part of the reason why I don't blog much here is because I never have finished projects to show... I always have at least half a dozen things going, and it takes me FOREVER to finish. So I thought I'd throw these up because who knows when I'll get back to them.
Here's some letters I'm working on for the kids' doors. I like how they came out, but I'm just not sure how I want to attach them to each other or the doors. They just might sit on my desk until we have another kid.



This is a pillow that I'm embroidering... just kind of making up a little pattern as I go.


simple skirt

Here's a skirt I whipped up for Delia. I had some scraps of hot pink terry cloth laying around (who doesn't?) After this little project I decided I should actually learn how to sew elastic into things instead of just making it up. The result was OK, though. It fits her and she can move around in it. She can move around so much that I got about 100 blurry pictures of her in it. Below is about as good as it got.

Mother's Day card

Here is a Mother's Day card I thought I could "throw together." It doesn't look very complicated, but cutting out the birds took me longer than I thought it would. I added a white border after I took this picture that made it look a little more finished.
