Wow this have been a busy couple of weeks.


Went on a field with my dd class to a children museum.This was really nice the kids got to play with everything in the museum.






My son had a news conference to announce what college he would be attending.





My kids had a week off for spring break.Took them to Frankenmuth Michigan for the day.We went on a carriage ride.They really enjoyed that.




Through all that I still found time for crocheting and sewing.






Pattern: No pattern did this on my own.
Yarn: Cotton Classic Tahki Stacy Charles
Color: Lavender
Size hook: B 1
Started : March 27 08
Finished April 5,08





Pattern: Simplicity 3532 view B.
Fabric: Can't remember.I had this fabric for about a year.I do remember it was machine washable.

This was another one of Simplicity easy-to sew.You know I love those easy to sew patterns.I had no troubles making this dress.



I will be wearing these shoes with my dress!!Don't they match the dress perfectly!!
