Bye Bye 20's

I spent the last day in my 20's sewing, what's new!  I have a ton of orders to get caught up on, and my mom gave me a day without E so I could get some work done.  The morning didn't start out so well as I spent 2 hours trying to spell out a word on my hoop-- much harder than it sounds!  After I finally got that complete I took a much needed break and then back to the grind.  It felt good to get some work done and not have to stress so much. 

After I finished sewing it was off to the fabric store to pick up my fabulous new gizmo- a serger!
This will make all of my raw edges much more professional looking and hopefully speed up some of my sewing when I am working on skirts and pants and such.  Now to just find the time to learn how to use it!

Here is a preview of what I worked on today. I love these ribbon shirts.  They're simple but such a cute staple to a little girl's wardrobe!
And here is my first complete outfit!  I made this for E's little friend Isabelle's 2nd bday:

I have been eying that owl fabric for awhile now and am excited to have the chance to use it!
