Sewing Bug

Once I start sewing one thing, I can't stop. I want to just make more things, regardless of whether they are necessary.

This first set is necessary. I needed padded covers for my new trailer/jogger so the nylon straps didn't cut into my kids necks. To take the new stroller and covers for a test run we went roller blading. Unfortunately Maisy needs to grow a little to really fit. And this is what I look like after my first aerobic workout in 2 months.

Then just because I liked this material and I felt that I needed a bag for the library, I made this.Please pretend like I don't have a closet full of bags that could do the same thing.

In the middle of all this sewing we had a couple of bloody noses. This is what one looks like mostly cleaned up.I feel like I need to teach Dylan to say, "You should have seen the other guy." Poor kid. I had to take a picture because I just couldn't believe the amount of blood.

So, I trying to copy Claire's cute headbands this is what I came up with. It's a little big and unproportional to Maisy's tiny head, but I think it's moving in the right direction. All of these were just scraps of material I had left over from other sewing projects, so this headband isn't exactly the cutest material. But try to catch the vision.
