Creating

I've been a slacker in the blogging world lately. Not because nothing exciting has happened, but because I have been busy. This month is the month I have given myself to get projects done so I can pack up the house next month. Here's what I have been working on.

the 12Squared block that goes to Jennie this month

Easter outfits for the girls. Caite saw this shirt (the one with the little jacket and necklace) and HAD to have it. So we made skirts to match. I couldn't find a shirt for Halle in the right color green. So I "repurposed" one of my old shirts I was getting rid of. It worked nicely.

Another summer dress for the girls. Halle has one also, but it's in the ironing pile. You know, the pile that has gotten really large this month do to my neglect because I'm creating.

These little flowers were very fun and easy made from scrap fabric. They will be cute in the girls new room.


And finally "end of the school year thank you gifts" for Caite and Hayden's teachers. Isaac's teacher will get something different. He will only have his new teacher for 9 weeks, so she will get something that doesn't require as much work.


Now I just need to get all my quilt squares from my quilting girls so I can put it together before we move. And I still have to paint the girls furniture black. Wish me luck getting it all done!

Aaron's grandma once said that a woman who reads a lot doesn't keep a clean house. I have news for her...neither does a woman who creates a lot :) I have some house work to do!

Aaron ordered moving boxes. They arrived. So I guess this move real.
