Poke-Jacket

Jackets aren't the easiest sewing project but they don't have to be the hardest either. This pattern by Puperita is very simple to put together. Fully doable for a seasoned beginner sewer. I used beautiful 95/5 cotton lycra custom knit prints for the exterior and a nice weight interlock from Chez Ami for the interior. Chez Ami closed up shop last year and I snagged a large amount of solid interlock for amazing prices. The particular jacket is a Christmas gift for the same little guy getting the Pokémon shirt in the previous post. It's a set :)

Not enough hours in the days!

There just are NOT!. It's basically impossible to do everything in a day I really need to. But, I simply do as much as I am able and let it roll from there. Today at 6 weeks 4 days of pregnancy the Nausea is kicking in. OMG I feel like I might barf... ugh

I did some sewing for an awesome little dude's birthday and Christmas today. I still have more sewing to complete for him then some building and sewing for his sister but all will get complete. On time too! One way or anther lol.

Then - I hit kohl's today too. And I found a great buy! Gotta love sales and coupons and YesToo rewards from other purchases.

Then after ALL that-- the real fun! A mini photo shoot in Knoop Park with a lovely couple to finish off their pictures for fall. You can see their session on FACEBOOK.

MY LOT

The vacant lot right across from my front door is like one of my GO TO spots for mini session. Its quiet, its close, its NOT DISTURBED BY ANYONE. It also happens to photograph quite beautifully.

Too many great ones to add! You should check out the album on Facebook to see the full session. See even a 20 image mini digital in the "LOT" yields wonderful variety for a quick family session. It's gorgeous, it's fast, and if you love a nice outdoor look its simply perfect.
