I have been suffering from insomnia and have been waking at like 4 in the morning lately. Awful, but I have been trying to make the most of it. I decided to make this sweet little set over the last 2 mornings awake.
I am rededicating more of my time in the sewing room to crafting things for my children and gifts. I plan to still offer items for sale occasionally, but I am working to keep my love for sewing and my humble little business more in check. I so enjoy the blessing of sharing the items I make not only with my children, but with other little girls too. I think that is what I love so much about making things, is watching the art of these beautiful fabrics come to life when a child dances, and twirls, and comes alive in them knowing that something was handcrafted just for them. I love that I can do that! In fact, I was originally intending this one as a OOAK to offer on ebay or etsy, but Ava came into the sewing room and told me…ooohhh…that is so beautiful…mommy, that my dress??? That put things even more into the perspective I have been trying to seek lately.
Isn’t this little bird so cute…It is actually a digital scrapbooking element from Shabby Princess that I printed off and traced onto the fabric. Another great use for digi stuff!
