fall coat

This is my newest creation - "Brooke's Coat" from Olabelhe Designs.

A couple details - flannel button loops, covered buttons (my son thought that was the coolest project!), and flannel lined bodice.  The outside of the coat is cream chenille.

pleated skirts

I tried out a new (to me) pattern for a pleated skirt.

It was a lot of fun to play with my fabric stash!!!

Check out Little Lizard King for this skirt and some of her other cute patterns!

You don't need to pull out a map, just check out my sister-in-law's blog here.

She is a kindred spirit and full of creativity!!!  Her "what's in a name" post says it all.  She is starting an adventure of jewelry, hair clips, and card making and I hope you'll join me in wishing her luck.

Check out her Flickr photostream too - she has some really great decorating ideas.  Her playroom is so much fun! (for some reason I can't get the picture to link here)

{hope your first craft show went well, E!}
