Field trip

Went treasure hunting at Trash for Teaching in LA. Came home with 17
pounds of manufacturing castoffs to reuse. Can't wait!

Pink party princess glitter extravaganza

So, my formerly tomboyish niece has fallen under the Disney princess
spell. For Christmas, I decided to make her some dress up clothes.
There was so much pink, glittery tulle and satin on my couch it made
my teeth hurt.

I'm pretty happy with how the two skirts turned out, but quickly
realized that she may hate them because they don't have crappy plastic
princess gems on the front.

So I went out and bought some. And hand-sewed them on. The irony here
is killing me.

And yes, the photo is upside down. Seems appropriate somehow.

Quilt: Done

Ahem. Kindergarten started about eight weeks ago, and it pulled the rug right out from under us.

I finally finished the quilt some time ago, but I haven't had the time or mental space to post the photo. But here it is!



H was very pleased with it. She admired it, then pushed it to the foot of the bed and asked for her "red" blanket--the one that Tara made for her when she was a baby. Well then.
