Peacocking About

Posted on 2:27 PM by fjtrfjf
Allow me this little post to show you some of my recent non-Montessori plumage ....
(Click on photos to enlarge.)
My entry for this contest made using Simplicity pattern 4017 ....
Fruit of an entire weekend spent appliquéing and hand-embroidering.A happy skirt made with Anna Maria Horner's new fabric line, Chocolate Lollipop. Inspired by the book, Sew You. (A MUST READ for those of you interested in learning how to sew your own clothes!)

Isn't my husband such a good sport, getting the cruddy camera to perform for this little photo shoot? What a gem. (The husband, not the camera.) :)

Hope you folks in the US of A have enjoyed your three-day weekend!

xo,
Meg
