Busy Day.


The photo is of my son Andrew and his girl Becky in Santorini, is'nt it lovely to be young and happy these years are so precious. I have made two more http:/littledressesforafrica.org/ Kathleen has made 5 so I have another two to go they are so simple. I have been laying out the blocks for my cottage quilt today it is now ready to put together but I think.
I will do it Quilt as you go.
It is 3 weeks tomorrow until Kate's wedding day, I think everything is ready now and we are looking forward to The Big Day!! Kate is very excited, she is picking up her dress on Sunday, the straps had to be altered, sh will bring the dress here to my house because she does'nt want Steve to see it and she does'nt have a lot of room, she wants us to have a mom and daughter afternoon and try on all our stuff, these moments are so precious so I am going to enjoy every one. Have a good weekend.

Little Dresses for Africa.

This sweet little dress is made from one of my no longer needed pillowcases I made it this afternoon with cottonreel who also made one we have several more pillowcases which we intend to turn into dresses for children in Africa, they need thousands, they are very simple to make so if you have some pillowcases you no longer need, look on Little Dresses for Africa site and download the instructions and put them to good use. They are also asking for little boys shorts, there is not a pattern for that but Cottonreel has cut out a pattern to use so we will make some of those too.
