I am working on remodeling a 12 year old manufactured home that had been flooded. I have so many project to do that I don't know were to start. I started this blog just to show the house but have added other crafts I have been ill for the last four weeks and will have to have major surgery soon, but for now am feeling better everyday. So I plan to get back to the projects I left 4 weeks ago. I hope to be posting some completed project soon. Thank you for visiting and please leave a comment and set your self up as a follower.

LBB & Daharma Trading Design Challenge

I used the recycled T-shirrt hoodie patter. I started out making hoodies after my Daughter-in-law, Christy at Beachbrights.blogspot.com sent me the pattern for the tee shirt hoodies. I was already planning to make a hoodie for my new nephew Alex, four months old. I had purchased a couple of patterns to use but after getting Alex's measurements was suprised to see that even though the patterns said they were for 6 months to 1 year size, they were HUGE. When I made the hoodies from LBB patterns the size was so accurate that I decided to use it to make the hoodie for Alex and it worked out perfect. The hoodie was made frrom scraps of a Robe that I had made my 16 year old grandson. I had put a tent pocket on his robe so I just continued the them. With shoes to match.

I plan to buy other patterns for LBB and keep on sewing.

    Cute hoodie!

    Max is wearing the red-blue one you made him to school today! I have a book to send you on children's clothes. I have to review it first but will get in the mail to you next week. Here's the link to the book: http://www.amazon.com/Sewing-Clothes-Kids-Love-Instructions/dp/1589234731/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1267795991&sr=1-1
