Quinn's first night in his own big bed!! woohoo

Quinn is in his own BIG bed (c/o Grandies for his birthday) and he was so excited when we set it up..
So far tonight he has only fallen out once.. I heard a thump so I went in there and turned the light on to find him sitting on the floor rubbing his head and pointing to the bed saying OOOHHaaah.. So cute, so we read another book and he crashed.. I haven't heard any bumps since!!

The Cake!!!

WooHoo Quinn's guitar... I am not sure what I will be making him next year, someone suggested a drum cake with working cymbals..LOL

And one of the boy today with his real one..

My Little Man is 2!!!

Wow, I really can't believe how quick life goes by these days.. my kids are growing up so quickly I could cry..
Quinn turned 2 yesterday and we had a little party for him today..
He is such a beautiful little boy, so cruisy and happy, he makes me laugh my tooshi of most of the day..

My Piratey babies..

We had a Pirate themed birthday to go to on the weekend and I finally used the last of my jack skull knit for a singlet top for my little man.
He is wearing mama made everything today!!


















My gorgeous girl got a top out of the Ottobre fall o7 mag.. I really don't like the instructions for some of the clothes in those mags, I ended up winging it and it turned out really nice on her.. I am going to make another for my friends daughter who does not like girly stuff but her mum would like for her to wear some things girly, I think this knit dress might be a happy medium for them both!! I hope...






Oh and my overlocker...GGGGRRRRRR it is driving me crazy.. I cant seem to get the tension right and it refuses to sew with black thread, apparently some machines are funny like that because the black dye in the thread is more dense than in the lighter colours.. it sews with navy blue fine.. go figure!!

Another Bag..!

Well I finally finished this bag for the birthday that starts in an hour!! Thats pretty good really, it means I can have a shower..lol
This is replacing the bird bag as a gift, this will hold magazines and pens and little girly stuff in general. I really hope she likes it.







My Top stitch is straight it just seems to look wonky in the photo, I think because the dots aren't straight!!

Skull Knit... heaps of it!!

I bought 2 mtrs of this fantabulous skull knit from Spotlight and have made heaps of things for all the gorgeous little boys in my life.. All there Birthdays are around the same time..


This was my first attempt at Ottobre clothing.. I love those mags..
So this is my little dude Quinn doing some modeling shots for mum in his skull knit top and red cordies..
















These are some fun little pants I made out of Drill for my friends little mans 2nd birthday.. They look great on him..
I made a skull top to go with them too.











This is the back of them, I wasn't too sure I liked this style of pockets on the back, but the looked really good in the end..











This is the whole out fit he got.. Very pirateee cool...








Quinn got some shorts with skull patches but I have to iron them before I put a pic up, another gorgeous little boy got a long T and Quinn got a black hoodie with skull knit lining the hood, I also did one for another gorgeous boy who is turning 4 too!!








And after all the Skull things I still have some left over!!
I am really ready to start sewing some other colours..LOL
