Is it summer yet?

>> Thursday, April 21, 2011




We keep getting warm fronts coming in, teasing us of at least spring to arrive. Then the pendulum swings the other way....

But, have no fear! I've been sacrificing goats in the back yard, burning incense, doing dances. Warmer weather should be here soon.

And to prepare, I whipped up a cute little summer dress for Quinn. Seriously easy. And to make the deal even better, I made it out of 2 men's t-shirts I scored from GoodWill. Yeehaw! I coooould have made it out of one t-shirt, but the contrasting yellow yolk around the neck? Yes. It was a must.

Got the tutorial from MADE.

Can't wait to make a few more for her.

Super cute! You are really making me long for a sewing machine even more! At first glance I thought it was a tank top for you... it would make a fashion-forward top for mom, too!!

Love Goodwill...I hear the Middletown one is way better than the one in New Windsor (?)
