Baby Blanket
Monkeys for a friends new baby boy coming soon. Also finished the soccer baby gown with some elastic along the bottom. I think I'm in love with elastic now. Here's the first steps to the gown!

New Shorts
I found this T-shirt at goodwill also. Although it would have made a cute shirt for me, I've been wanting to make shorts for my son. So this striped T became shorts tonight! 20 minutes total, (not counting the time it took me to find the tutorial I had bookmarked.)
Striped T-shirt.
Cut pieces.
New shorts that just need the elastic put in.
The vertical striped shorts are the ones I used as a pattern. I'm afraid the ones I made may be a bit short in the waist, but we'll find out. If they are, I have some left-over blue T-shirt material that can be the cuffs and the waist. I'll make it work!

New-to-me Fabric Store
Oh My Goodness!!! I cannot believe I came across this sight! I am looking into it more, but I have been wanting to design my own fabric; have heard about people designing their own fabric; have finally come across this business in North Carolina; cannot wait to design my own fabric.
IT IS a bit pricey per yard, so definitely something that will have to wait. Actually, I have come across another sight that you could print your pictures onto fabric and other people could buy your fabric-picture. I found some awesome race cars for my son and some amazing nature shots. That sight was priced for the exotic type, though, and with a quick search I could not find them again.
Anyway... I am excited for Spoonflower Fabrics and cannot wait to explore their site more thoroughly.
