A little knitting and a little distraction
I have been doing a little knitting… See:

But I spent most of the weekend sewing! What!? Yeah, I do take a knitting break once in a while. It was all inspired by the arrival of Bend-the-Rules Sewing by Amy Karol.

I made this smock for Ava. If you couldn’t guess, she picked out the fabric. Pink, flowers, sparkly… how could she pick anything else? The smock is a hit – she loves it.

And I finished this little number this afternoon. It was really fun to sew! I love how it turned out, though it is a little small for my needs. It will make a fab knitting project bag! (I wasn’t going to bother with the bow, but I love how it turned out!)










I’ve had my eye on this book for a while! You did a great job, I think I’m finally convinced to get this book, I especially love the little smock.

Both projects turned out great! I’m glad you added the bow to the bag…it makes it special :)
