I am thinking Christmas already

and it's only June.

I am gathering up ideas of what I am wanting to make people for Christmas. I know for sure this year I am going to do some kind of cook book. I am forever being asked how did you make that or what's in this or that. And people are always calling and asking for a recipe that I made or something I brought to a party. While I enjoy making those things I think it's time I start sharing my recipes with them so that they can enjoy the foods with out feeling like they are bothering me by asking for recipes.

I also want to do some kind of photo project for the grandparents of the kids.

And I know for sure I am going to make Serenity some dresses and some PJ's.
For Logan I want to make PJ pants.
For Jordan I would love to try to make her some new bedding and some PJ's.

I think I really want to keep Christmas simple this year. And do more home made things.

Crazy to be thinking about it now but all of that stuff is going to take time and money so I have to start soon..

This dress is going to be the death of me

Sewing is something I love to do. It's right up there with baking. I don't know that I am great at either one of them but I enjoy it.

I am making a dress for a lady I use to work with. The dress is made with 2 different fabrics so that it has contrasting areas. Well I have never made a dress like this. IT IS REALLY FREAKING ME OUT!! I can't figure out how to put the darn thing together or where to being. I have had this thing cut out for over a month and still it sits in pieces. Ready for me to get going on it.

UGHHHH!!

I need to pray to the dress making gods that they will help me put this thing together and let me earn my monies for it.
