Thanks for all of your shop support yesterday! This is the rest of the sewing-to-sell work that's been done these past few weeks. These childrens placemats and napkin sets (much like these ones) were made for Edith & Edna.
And a new style of smocks, adapted from a vintage pattern. These will also be available at Edith & Edna in the coming weeks.
The smocks are linen on one side and cotton print on the other -fully reversible - this one with the bird fabric from Superbuzzy that I love so very much (ha! I popped over there to grab that link, and wouldntcha know, I ordered another yard of it, and um, a book. Okay, and some more fabric too. Um, how did that happen?)
Adelaide is very much into the birds outside right now (the same birds that her
dear kitty cat is naughtily stalking out the window. Hmnn.). She runs to the
windows throughout the day hollering "BIR!" (Bird). And she's totally
in that phase where each word gets stuck on repeat, until another one
she knows is brought to mind. So, it's more like "Bir!" "Bir!" "Bir!"
"Bir!" and so on (and so on), until "Tat!" (Cat) or something else comes out. That's the long way of saying that this smock isn't heading into a shop, but staying right on my sweet baby girl, who loves her birds.
Happy Weekend to you!
