A very crafty weekend!

So, we had a fabulous weekend! Saturday we had some wonderful friends over for dinner and recieved a fabulous gift (which is over on the mid-century blog if you want to drool and be jealous we have such cool friends).

Yesterday I had many issues with transfering a new embroidery design I’m going to be working on onto satin (pictures to come) – but in the end, I used a Sharpie and it turned out great – yay! I did a bit more sorting in my studio (Etsy store coming VERY soon!) – and in my “spare” (ha ha) time, I made this:

A costume for Missy C’s baby doll Krissy (she’s an American Girl baby doll and SO cute and lifelike – R and I almost get baby urges occassionally when holding her!).

Anyway, I’m pretty proud of the costume – whipped up in about an hour, I think it’s really cute! And R took the lovely photo – isn’t it great?
