I think I can safely say that whooping cough and pneumonia are passing by our house (thank you, thank you) and we're all just left with head colds and a cough. Not so bad after all. Phew.
I've been realizing, in the past few weeks as it's gotten cooler, that I spent way too much of my thrifting time this summer in front of the vintage linens, and not enough in the childrens clothing section. Oops. And, Oh well. Since I can't bring myself to buy 'new' kids clothes, I guess that leaves me sewing, now doesn't it? Oh, such torture. Excuses to sew. Logical reasons and needs to sew. I love it.
First up was pants for Adelaide. Being child #3 let's just say that anything I haven't made or found recently thrifted are BEAT after two big brothers. These were all made by tracing the one pair of pants she had that did fit (thrifted Oilily. love that.). I think those blue Munki Munki jersey pants (with ruffle on the bottom courtesy of Sewzannes) have me convinced that I NEED a ruffler. I do, don't I? Yes, I thought you'd agree.
