unfinished projects

Well, I started a couple more outfits, and all I really need to do is add buttons to the straps - but I keep moving onto other things instead of learning how to sew button holes with my sewing machine. I'm sorry if these project posts are boring, but they are mostly for my mom who likes to see what I'm sewing, so sorry there are so many!

the first is a little sun suit. I love all that room she'll have in there!

I think the funnest part was learning how to put snaps on at the bottom! until I realized they didn't even match up right at the end, but oh well. they'll do.

I obviously kinda screwed up the "gathered" skirt part, but hopefully my next one will be much better! and the straps just need their buttons!




 and here is a little elephant I saw on the internet, and then tried to make my own pattern for it. Not the best, but kinda cute!

pregnancy update: everything is still going good thank goodness. She seriously would NOT stop kicking me ALL day yesterday. I wonder if she ever sleeps. I tried to fall asleep for an hour last night, and she kept just rolling around in there. Maybe she's a rowdy sleeper?
Oh, and I started school this semester... and my finals are the week before I'm due. hm. but I changed around my schedule and found all online classes, so at least I don't have to waddle myself to class!
and also, it's my birthday week, so this should be a fabulous week! hint hint to tanner.

Alli you are amazing! When do you get here exactly? I cannot wait to see you! Bring baby stuff and let's work on projects together. The dress is my favorite; I love that fabric! If I give you fabric, want to make me one? :) Maybe we can do a trade... I can paint for you if you can sew for me. Ahh I am so excited for you to be here!
