Courtney's Halloween Costume

Courtney was certain when we looked through the costume books that it must be a Cinderella dress with no poofy sleeves in green on the bottom with pink on the top. It can out a little big with a few sewing mishaps. Determined to do better, I tried again in the smaller size.
This one came out neater and smaller so she prefers it. She told me she will wear this one this year and the other one next year. Either way I have conquered the princess dress and won. And with some clearance fabric we can stock the closet with them.

Another Wake Forrest game!

They let fans down onto the field.

And Courtney tackled me!

Courtney's Dance Class

This is so much fun to watch! the class is titled Creative movement and there are defiantly creative dances going on. I laugh almost the whole time.

Courtney's Quilt

Now that she has a new bed we were in need of a new blanket, so I decided I would scrap quilt. Cathy brought over some lovely fabric that was originally bought to make dresses for Courtney. I found some applique tulip patterns in a library book, one book had like four or five tulip patterns. I had an idea in my head that I found in a civil war quilt book. For those of you who know about quilting; it is a double Irish chain, I used strip methods to make it faster, it is all machine pieced, even the applique. I have no idea how I will quilt it yet or the backing I will use.yet, although, I am thinking flannel. This is my first attempt at quilting.
