Welcome to the ramblings of a suburban stay at home mom to two kids, one of whom just happens to be living in Taiwan at the moment. This all started out as a simple adoption blog, which I quickly hijacked from my family and made all about what I thought! Shocking, I know. I still discuss the ongoing adoption of our son Zack from Taiwan...but I have so much more to say....

A Hat
I just finished another one of my little hats for the boys. I started making these when Luke was a baby and still really love the look. I call them "Rock Star" hats because so many folks point and whisper and even approach us when the kids wear them. Now I just need to keep a few with me so I can see them to our Fans!

Another bag...
So, I finished another cute little purse. I am officially an addict. This time I used a fun little dot stitch on my machine to do most of the finish work...The purse was a birthday gift for Little miss Lily, who is 1, so it seemed perfect. I already have two more in the works. Can't wait to share!

A Sweet Little Bag
So...I have been wanting to try making a purse for a while now. But for obvious reasons I haven't had much time or space to sit and create. I finally set up a sewing area and got busy.
Although I have been sewing for quite a while, I have never tried a project like this before and am quite pleased with the results.
I just sketched it out on paper and then made my own pattern. Honestly, I didn't know quite how it would turn out. I only had to rip out 1 seam. Yeah! I was a bit disapointed with the fuseable stabalizer I chose, but other than that it turned out very near to my vision. It is just like a yummy little gumdrop.
I can't wait to start the next one!!!! Stay tuned.
