meet Kitty

 

Jackson was sad, so he asked me to make him a kitty, named Kitty. He liked the head, but promptly requested the body to go with it. Then he drew it for me, then he modeled it for me (hands on floor, crawling around), then he cried for it to be created immediately.

He'll wake up to a finished Kitty.

Myself, I like the whiskers. They are authentic whiskers for ceramic animals toys and novelties. They may be cut to proper length.

vintage dandelion fabric

Sooo tempted to get this vintage dandelion fabric. I don't even know what for - maybe that little white chair in Cade's room, or maybe just a little foot stool.  Don't you love it?

pillows

CB2 sells these pillows. I can't wait to make our own once I get me some fabric paint.

ABC's

Cade's beginning to sing his ABC's. It's very cute.

He also sings "Happy Birthday to You."

And says "MINE" a lot. And also, "No." As in, "Cade, let's go pick-up Jackson at school." "No."

Johnny Grey Felt Booties

While looking for slippers for Cade, (non-slip, 'cause he wipes out a lot), I came across these adorable baby booties.

I think someone clever could figure out how to make them.

I think someone more clever could figure out how to keep them on him.

we sewed together

The sock snake we made the other day. He has four eyes and his name is Szo-szo.

long long neck

Jackson has a giraffe fixation. Along with a brown tow truck, red race car, and robot (Wall-E) obsession.

This little pillow is very cute.

ha ha, no problem

Auntie Gwyn noticed that I STILL GOT THIS WRONG. I had October 14th, instead of November 14th.

However, it's fixed!

In PhotoShop.

Thank you, Jon.

The initials and date embroidered on the christening gown.
Notice the "C". Oh well. Easy to fix.
