I heart my mailman....

He delivered this all the way from Finland..... I have a couple of these, but I have been waiting for this one... Why you say?? Because it has the patterns for THIS :

I first saw this, and I knew I HAD to make it!

THIS is the reason I ordered this magazine.... Look at the back of that top..... and the bottom of those pants! I LOVE European children's clothing design!!!

This little top is also DIVINE....

The outfit that made me obsessed with this magazine will be made for Anne Pearce out of this Jennifer Paganelli fabric that I have stuck away for JUST the right project....

And for Essie out of this: Same fabrics... different colorways.... Both = EYE CANDY! I have one more order to fill, some Mickey Mouse outfits for our Disney trip, and then I am making these bad boys... I will have enough to sell MAYBE one or 2. You better email me if you're interested.... I have a feeling they'll go fast!

In other news, my hair is growning on me (forgive the pun). It's super easy curly or straight, and it's finally getting long enough to get around my smallest round brush. Still not what I went for but better than it was.....
I do feel younger and spunkier with this cut.... If I just had some Botox to take care of those forehead wrinkles......

And check out Essie's hair right after her nap.... She could be on a runway. Seriously. Black silk... Youth is wasted, I say!
