My First Hoodie

Christy, sent me a pattern for a Hoodie that's made from recycled Tee Shirts. Here is what I came up with. Hope it fits Max.

You take two tee shirts that Daddy is ready to do with out, or you can go to Thrift Stores and pick up some. You need 2 shirts with corrdinating colors and you turn it into a childs hooded. Pattern came from Ellebows and more web site She has a lot of great ideas on her site. Check it out at http://lilblueboo.blogspot.com

Making Blakeley's Robe

I started Blakeley's Robe this morning. I am almost done. Here are some of the pictures. After cutting it out it was a big pile of material just waiting to be put together. I decided just to make a retangle pocket on her robe, but I wanted it to match up with the print. This really is a lot of fun. I love making things, because it is like putting together a puzzle.
