Finally some sewing!

In a trade with another mama locally, here are some cloth pads and one wonky lunch sack. I surely need to fix this. I think the back should be longer than the front to fold down better so I think I'll put a deeper hem in the front and a scant hem in the back and hopefully that will make it look less wonky. Otherwise what a cute lunch sack! Its so soft with cotton batting in between the layers and the material is super soft.
The cloth pads came out great! The light purple one is super wonky, I think I'll be keeping that for myself! :) Which some of this wonky sewing may have to do with the fact that I was up until 2am sewing!!! Hmmmmmm...... sometimes sewing at night is relaxing but wonky! (grin)
Have a look!









In all its great wonkyness!






And one picture of them all together, these are super soft made with yummy fabrics, fleece, cotton, and some flannel! I sure hope she likes them!

What I hope to get from blogging

I was thinking how amazing some blogs are! I think why I want to blog and well partly I want a link for my kids to see as they grow. I want to record those special moments about them and for them.
I also want my thoughts down as I feel like this is a huge changing part of my life for me. I wish I could think of something fancy to say about that metamorphis that is happening. But well I dont always get fancy! :)
I find myself drawn much more to the things around me, nature, trying to observe the good things around me. And growing from those experiences. Truly isnt life a growing experience? For learning, for fun, for being kind to others.
