Winter Bed

Ahh...the flannel sheets! :D

I finally made E her duvet cover...she went without last year. I used the flat snowman sheet as I hate flat sheets on kids' beds...makes it so hard for them to do on their own. I also used some clearanced Target sheets I'd picked up this summer...the flannel snowman sheet is for the back so it's soft against her skin :) I eyed her current duvet cover for how to do this one...turned out well! I was off somehow on my measurements in the back so one strip down the side is a bit narrower than the other. Shhh- don't tell. Even though I just did :D



I love my buttons! They look like candy!





We'll be breaking out the heated blanket for J and I very...very soon! :D

Halloween

Been crazy around here with the moving and open house and all. So I'm just getting around to posting E's costume! I'd promised her a Mulan outfit long before I knew we'd be moving. Now I know to wait until closer to!







The night of- all made up and feeling quite sassy!:





This was her outfit last year for kicks (Melody the mermaid). Sorry for the huge pics!:





And a funky outfit she wore the week of...should fit for the next couple of years with the tie belt. I bought a clearanced tee at goodwill (they were still selling the things at Target...I was quite pleased with myself :D). I just added a skirt and belt with carriers. And made some leggings too:



Hope to get my sewing stuff back out in the next couple of weeks here. I'll be going through my bags of fabric and paring down at the same time...it's gotten out of hand! Really. :P
