On Hiatus

I'm sure you've all (all 5 of you) noticed a lack of posts here.  For the time being this blog is on hiatus while I enjoy my new daughter. For more reading on my crazy life, please stop by my home away from home, Books. Lists. Life.  I'll be back in this space in a couple months, promise.

Sometimes life gets in the way.

It feels like I'm ignoring this blog lately. I don't MEAN to, but by the time I have a chance to sit down to blog I'm too tired to take pictures of what I'm sewing. I'm still blogging a bit at my main blog, so stop by and say hi over there while you wait for me to get my act together.

Quick weekend sewing-

The Pirate has a new obsession, Star Wars. He blends pretend play about Pirates, Power Rangers, and Star Wars seamlessly into one big fight scene. (Sometimes it feels our entire life is one big pretend fight scene!) So last Sunday during naptime I raced down to the sewing room and whipped up a quick "Obi Wan Kenobi" tunic. I did most of it with the serger so the hems are finished, but not pretty. It's pretty narrow and I didn't cut it on the bias so it doesn't stretch, but the Pirate doesn't notice these flaws. He firmly believes that he IS "a Star Wars."
