Made: Recycled T-Shirt Sienna Dress
Pretty much I'm a huge fan of Lil Blue Boo. Why? Because her ridiculously adorable patterns have given me a great excuse to upcycle my multitudes of unused/too big/ too small t-shirts into funky clothes for the kids.
Actual sewing/prep time is hard to calculate. I'm completely engrossed in the Olympics lately and my sewing is a little less focused because of it. Are you guys glued to this? I get so invested in all the stories of the athletes, and then I yell at the TV for them when it's their turn. I'm sure they can feel my support through the TV. I know what you're thinking. Of course they can.
Yes, I'm kind of a dork that way. This is why whenever I'm watching sports of any kind on TV and I start talking to the tube, Little Miss takes notice and starts shouting, "Go baby GO!" Can you tell that we watch just a *little* bit of football in our house, and maybe Mommy gets just a *teensy bit* involved in the games? I'm not apologizing for it. I'm just saying.
So there were a few things on the agenda for this weekend:
- Make something. Anything.
- Clean up and re-organize the crafty space.
The good news? Mr. Skooks has graciously agreed to build me some shelves to go over my sewing desk so that I can have my creative things a little more accessible and organized. I'll keep you updated on the progress . . .
So here's a question, what'd everyone make this weekend? If you've posted a project on your blog somewhere, I'd love to check it out. :)

P.S. Much love to whomever it was who first "Stumbled" my Recycled Paper Flower Gift Bow Tutorial. Because of you that post went kinda viral. And because of you I truly discovered how cool StumbleUpon actually is.

I didn't get any sewing done this weekend like I wanted to. I did, however, find those pattern boxes I was looking for and got all my patterns organized. Working on some pattern weights today. Not sure what else.
You did a great job!
It turned out great! I love the t-shirt dresses!
I embroidered a bit...I'll be posting about that soon! Thanks for joining us again!!!! :)
