Lilly's and a skort

Lilly's in my garden.

Girls skort in navy with white polka dot

and lime green with white polka dot.

Picture is a wee bit fuzzy so you can't see the dots so good.

If you click on the picture you get a bigger view.

with rolled edge hem.

And the lime green skort underneath.

Sleepwear

Smocked nightie I made for my granddaughter's birthday.

It is a girls size 10 and

made out of cotton lawn print.

I actually started it last year.

Kinda slow!!

I edged the sleeves and hem with eyelet trim.



 And a close-up of the smocking.

(not my best work)

Birthday t-shirts

Opening birthday gifts and everyone

dressed in their t-shirts.

They where very cute.

Embroidery on t-shirts

We have friends from Vancouver coming to visit this weekend.

Their girls are good friends with our girls

and we have not seen them for a year.

All the girls are very excited.

Also, it is their oldest daughters birthday this weekend.

She said she would like a chocolate cake

with yellow icing.

So I thought the theme for the birthday

could be the color "yellow".

(Grandma's aren't aways that creative when

it comes to kids birthday parties.)

And I thought it would be fun for the girls

to all have the same t-shirts for the party.

We also got some yellow hair spray!!

I got the t-shirts at Michael's on sale

at 2 for $5.00.

What a good deal!!

The embroidery design is from Embroidery Library

and stitched out real nice.

Flowers in my garden

Just thought I would share some pictures

from my garden.

Sew Something Cute

A cute skort.

With a double ruffle.

This one I made in a size 10.

The grandkids are getting older and soon

won't want to wear ruffles.

The shorts underneath are of the same fabric.

I did a rolled edge with the serger on the ruffle.

I am working on another one with a contrasting

short underneath.

So that is my most recent project.

Also weeding and watering to do outside

The mosquitoes are fierce which

makes it rather difficult.
