I have missed my sewing.
I don't know how life gets so busy that the things you really enjoy doing get set aside. It's not that I haven't done ANY sewing over the last few months, but I haven't done much besides patching & altering & "must dos"....
So yesterday I broke the cycle! Pulled out some fabric to make myself a bag for my role as Super-Sleuth extraordinaire, Heidi Claire.
The bag turned out a bit smaller than I thought it would be, but it will do its job. I made it reversable, so after VBS (if I really like it) I can put Heidi to the inside and still use the bag! :-)
My middle son graduated High School the beginning of June. I can't believe time went so quickly! Thankfully I finished his quilt before graduation and so only had to re-decorate his room! It is now bright and shows his personality!
My sister got to come down and stay with us for a while. She was such a huge help getting things ready for graduation!
I decided that I would embroider her & her girls some aprons, so I had them go thru my programs and pick out what they liked. Here is what we ended up with:
I will post the 4 other aprons when I get a chance. Right now I need to go finish my daughters birthday present! Just one more page to go!!
Well I keep trying to leave a comment but blogger is acting up.....so anyways, I will leave one this way, Very cute and retro! And wow your almost done educating! ~Karina

I mentioned to you before how much I enjoyed this entry and that your bag is awesome, but hopefully this time my comment will post! :-)
Can't wait to see your next projects,
Kelly
I can't find the pictures I took of the other aprons ANYWHERE!! It gets confusing when I use two cameras, my phone and my iTouch for picture taking... lol
