What Was I Thinking?


I like to sew. I really do. I don't like to sew on a deadline though. So, why would I think it would be a good idea to sew a birthday gift with a five week old in the house and inlaws coming? I've been sewing in between bouts of crying followed by periods of nursing. Sadly my brain doesn't work well enough to keep track of where I was when I left off. So when I get back to sewing it takes me a good five minutes to find my place and continue on. My deadline is Saturday and I have completed half of what I need to do. The first part is a bag for toting about American Girl dolls. I have to say it has turned out rather nicely. I hope it is well loved, for it has helped to drive me towards insanity. The next piece I have to make is a sleeping bag for an American Girl doll. I'm hoping it goes ok, the directions aren't very clear and I'm not a very good seamtress. If I manage to get it made I'll post a picture, if there isn't a picture we'll just never mention it :)
