Proof

Here's proof that I don't just sit on my arse all day.

Penny loved her dress, but it also came with a pattern for a little purse, so she won't stop asking me to make that too. So I'll be posting more pictures once I've made that. By the way-- I'm including pictures of my ugly face because of Melissa's request. I do agree with her though: all the mom's out there need to have more pictures of themselves on their blogs (except me).

I know these hooded towels are way too big, but their other ones were way too small. Thomas said he likes his the way it is, but I think I'll make some adjustments to Penny's and Sam's. (I made Penny a pink one, but she wasn't in the mood for a picture). And eventually I'll embroider their names on them.

Cute, Cute, Cute! You are so talented. I can't sew at all!! I bought a pattern for the boys halloween costumes and am scared to death to make them. I told my mom and Amy they HAVE to help me. I'm a total retard when it comes to a sewing machine. Hence the need for you to make my boys those cute pillows - that they LOVE!! Just so you know, Bryce has to sleep with his every night! LOVE Sam's cute face!!

Allison, you creative woman, I have a good hooded towel pattern if you're interested, it's a good size for our size of kids (the hood part) My kids have big ol' beans and none of the other kind of hooded towels fit over their giant noggins. These are cute - I love the colors and of course love the models.

OH! PS I'm so glad you put some pix of yourself in there! For some reason I can't get out of my brain that you don't have blonde hair. You look so pretty and sophisticated.

Allison! You're last few posts having me laughing so hard my stomach hurts, and I'm not lying. I LOVE YOU. You always bring happiness my way...

Thank you for obeying me! I'm so happy to see your pretty face in these pictures.

PSH. Show off. But then, I would too if I was as talented as you!

I love Penny's dress! You are a little Amie Ison :) I just went to my Super Saturday and learned to do a hooded towel! Super easy - here let me tell you... You get a hand towel and fold it and cut in half. So you can use one hand towel for 2 towels. Then you sew the handtowel, turn it right side out and then sew it to the towel. They showed us to add pleats, but I'm sure you could do it without. It turned out cute. I'll have to post them when I get the others made. Just thought I'd share :)

Allison, you're hot!! Like Erin said, I was expecting blonde hair. Is that your natural color?

I love your hooded towels, too. I should make an attempt....ahhh, nevermind! I would just end up frustrated!
