a diary of faith, fitness, + the pursuit of fearlessness
You may have seen me mention a few times on Facebook that I am making my sister a silk suit for her next pageant. I got started on the muslin…well, ugly orange broadcloth if you want to get technical…this week and I love how it is turning out! Now that I’ve got the right fit, I am going to start cutting it out in the next couple of days. I can’t wait to get started! The neckline is my favorite part!! I share some more pics when I get more done. What do you think so far??
[…] Fancy Schmancy Flower Headbands October 16, 2012 By April Leave a Comment This weekend, the boys went on their very first camping trip with my dad! I was so nervous that they would cry to come home, especially since his deer lease is an hour and a half away, but they had a blast! My dad said booboo bear ran all over, climbing on everything. They played flash light hide and go seek when it got dark, made a fire, had smores, and helped papaw set up his hunting area. So since my hubby was working, Mom, Sophie, and I had a girls night. We watched the LSU game, mom & I drank beer. Sophie had Dr. Pepper. Sophie and Mom colored pics of Spiderman during half time, and since I have to keep my hands busy at all times, I made Sophie a Halloween headband using Fancy Schmancy’s Eva pattern, and wrapped some headbands for the other flowers I had already made. Then, yesterday Adriana (my youngest sister) came over and I asked her to take some pics of Sophie in the headbands while I worked on the silk suit for her upcoming pageant. […]
[…] more than one muslin is useless. I was so afraid to cut the silk and mess it up that I made THREE muslins, and after all that, I still had to do a week’s worth of […]
super cute of course!
Ok, do you like the orange or hate it?! LOL I love it! I also like the taper over the hips (I have no idea what to call that). It’s very flattering!
I love it so far!!! And she works the “ugly orange” – she would totally rock that if it was a shirt, or even a dress.
this is going to be really pretty. you are such a great sister to do this all the tme.
