confession of the week August 16th, 2008

I have to admit that I’m a closet seamstress (I originally typed sewer but then realized what I wrote, heehee) and I’m really, really bad at it but I can’t seem to stop myself from trying. I’m completely self-taught and my grandmother would probably be totally ashamed if she inspected my work but I still continue to muddle my way through it. I have to admit though that I’ve actually had a success by my standards and I totally love this little apron! It actually has 2 layers but it’s hard to see in these photos. Riley loves it too (which makes it all worthwhile) but I apologize in advance for the quality of this photo because as much as she loves it – she is so obviously annoyed with my incessant picture-taking! I actually bribed her with marshmallows for this one just because I wanted to send it to my friend who is as obsessed with children’s clothing as I am!

Here it is:

    I am thinking you should be a photographer for a magazine…or better yet start publishing your own magazine, book or whatever to reach the masses and share your extroadinary talent……… every time I am on your blog/ website I am in awe at the amazing pictures you take and the spirit and personality of these kids that you capture.. you truly have a gift..love the huge window with the blue and brick

    I love that I am your friend who is as obsessed with clothing as you are!! I am so jealous– too bad I am not as patient to make one for Chloe. XOXO
