Archives for 11.5.10

I created!

11.5.10

So, it’s not anything close to Red Thread Stitches, but I’m pretty darn proud of myself.

I have a really cool vintage Disney pillowcase I wanted to make into a tunic top for Ashlyn. But, I didn’t want to ruin it with my first attempt at it. So, I made this yesterday out of an old tank top we had and some old Raggedy Ann and Andy sheets from when I was little. I’m so happy with how it turned out. It’s super cute. And, I loved it with the red striped socks and red Mary Janes today.

There is something so rewarding about turning nothing into something, you know? And, there is something so rewarding about having a finished product to my efforts. So much of what I do doesn’t have any sort of finished product–“mom stuff” typically doesn’t.

I could get into this.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
