What I did do this week

My dearest babygirl turns two end of this month. Time has gone by so quickly... I've been doing some preps for her birthday-bash. Invites have gone out to the neighbours and I've made her a birthday-crown.
I have a whole list of other stuff to handle for her birthday comes around, but this I can tick of my list. Yay me!





the crown looked a lot better after I ironed it, but ofcourse I forgot to take pictures of it then and just stored it. Ah well, you'll have to wait for the birthday pictures then.






Just for a quick fit, and it looks fine!



Other than that I've made a shirt for my daughter out of a dress of mine. It looked a lot better on the fitting doll then it did on me, but the fabric was too nice to just throw it out. Throwing out good fabric is always a waste so I kept it. I did make it in a larger size, since we have a serious overkill in sizes 86 and 92, so I decided to make her a 98.
I used Dana's great tutorial for the 90 minute shirt to make this shirt.






bots for girls! <3

I love the red-and-white stripes and the black biais. Together with her curls it makes her look like a very cute pirate-girl.


And last but not least, something for myself. A keychain. I should try and get my hands on some of that band and some hooks and loops because I think these make great gifts!



The title implies that I should've done other stuff instead of sewing and making things. I can't say much about it, but believe you me, I'm a procrastinator pur sang. Whish I wasn't but it always makes for good sewing in the end.
