Sidetrack from Improvements

Yes, I've been slacking on my house duties lately....but really who can blame me? I've gotten sidetracked into sewing and I'm not even feeling bad about it.

I was afraid that Keedan would be a tornado during my various projects but he has been very good and seems intrigued when he watches.

Here's a sidetrack from the point of my post.....here are some super cute pics of Keedan trying on some of Ryan's gear last night.






And other cute pictures of last week when some of his cousins were here.


Heading out to to the pool.

Attacking D'mar with bubbles.

OKay, back to the reason I"m blogging.
I've been working on decor for the baby's room. So much fun!
I think making all this stuff has gotten me even more excited about having a girl.
So here's what I've got so far.



Here are just 3 of the 7 mini dresses I sewed together yesterday. I added little belts to them so far but they still need some embellishing. I'm going to string these little dresses on the outside of the crib like a clothesline (with clothespins too). I haven't decided if I want to paint the clothespin's or leave them natural. We'll see.

Here is the fabric for the curtains I'm making. I'm not quite done, ran out of thread, but next week they'll be done & hung (b/c new window's will be installed then...YAY!)

So now I've gotta decide on how I'm making the bedskirt and bumper pads. I was thinking about using the stripes for the bedskirt and making the bumper pads with the flowery fabric, but I just can't make up my mind.
That's it for now. Hopefully, I will make my decision sooner than later.

The dresses are adorable and I love the idea of stringing them on a clothes line! I am glad that you are creating your own theme I am sure it will look amazing when its completed.
