A Tiny Sneak Peek

Here's small glimpse of Tillie's birthday outfit.

A Pair of Peacocks.

My friend Lure is having twins!  Her last name means peacock, so I new from the start that I would be making a peacock onesie.  After her 20 week ultrasound I learned I would have to make two.  Shopping for coordinating fabric was fun.

In a few months we'll meet the little boy and girl!

Tulip Time is Coming

When I went to the Dutch Costume Sale in Holland I bought a costume for Tillie.  Kizie was with me, but costumes in her size were over $50.  That's just a little too much for me.  So, I decided to make her one.  Now, it's not authentic in the least.  (Apparently neither is Tillie's as the rude salesperson at Field's in Holland commented while I was shopping for fabric.  She also just picked Tillie up out of the stroller.  Yeah.  Guess which location I won't be going back to?)  But, she clearly looks Dutch to me!

Next time I'll make the skirt fuller.  You can't see it, but the fabric and the trim both have tulips on them.

And Kizie is very happy.  That's all that matters to me.

Birthday Outfit

Tillie's birthday party is in three weeks.

I just wanted to give you some advance warning.  You know, to mark your calendar so you can check back here to see the super-cute outfit I made her.

Oh, is it ever cute.  She even grinned when I showed it to her.
