I'm still sewing...some

I have been doing the occasional sewing project, but I haven't been posting many pictures of them. I need to do several more I even have some all cut out, but my sewing room has been a mess up until a few days ago and I never seemed to get anything done. Now the room is clean and I will hopefully be able to post pictures of several projects I will be working on for the holidays. Here are the projects I've completed over the bast two months...

Pajama pants using this pattern. It is an awsome (very fast and easy) pants pattern and she just came out with one for adults too which I plan on getting to make some Christmas presents. I'm embarrased to say that I think this is one of the only things I've sewn for Corbin since he was a baby. We were blessed with a bunch of hand me downs and he's had such a nice wardrobe that there really hasn't been any need for me to make him clothes till now. They were both happy with the pajama pants and I got these cute shots.





Here are some pumpkin throw pillows I made for Halloween and Thanksgiving. I sent the Emma one to my sister at BYU to spruce up her dorm room. The Jack o lantern one has velcro on it and on the felt pieces so the kids can make it have different faces. The pieces are kept in a pocket on the back of the pillow.





Thanks for looking :).

Halloween

The State Fair

I know that this was a long time ago, but the State Fair of Texas is something I look forward to every year. I love the fried foods, the petting zoo, the cotton candy, the live infomercials, the samples, the cars, the rides, the smells (well, most of them), the shows, the arts and crafts, the kiddie farm, all of it is so much fun. This year Juan couldn't get off work so the kids and I wend with my parents and we had a great time.

The Flu

The end of October was a crazy time for our family. We got sick with the flu and now two+ weeks later we are all almost better; I still have a lingering cough. I'm really hoping that we got all of our sick days over for the rest of the year because I'm so tired of being sick and/or having sick kids it isn't even funny. I have lots of photos to share (during the times we weren't sick) though so look for a few new posts during the next few weeks.
