Vacation crafting

As well as the usual packing for a trip, there has been a huge amount of sewing and crafting in the past week. I have sewn 9 skirts to match the new T-shirts for the special trip to the happiest place on earth.


I have learned to make curly clippies to go with the new skirts that match the T-shirts for the special trip to the happiest place on earth.

And then I needed a crafty project to take - just in case there was any down time on the special trip to the happiest place on earth.


I gathered my supplies for my project (something like this maybe?), and then I needed something to carry them all in.


Ta-da! A new crafty bag, in fabric that makes me happy, for a little project to take on the special vacation to the happiest place on earth.

Lucy's Dress

I love this dress. Lucy picked the fabric herself. I sewed it - my first dress ever. I am particularly pleased with the pintucks in the sleeves and bodice (apparently it doesn't take much to make me happy).

Lucy loves it too and wore it to school with her long brown boots. Luckily it is unseasonably cool here so she didn't melt.
