I am hosting Crafty Tuesday this week since Carrie is gone to Hawaii.  Lucky ducks!  I love Hawaii, and hopefully someday we can brave the 8 hour flight again and take the kiddos.  I think they would love to swim with the sea turtles, which was exceedingly cool.  The whales weren’t too bad either.

I thought I would share some stuff I made for moi.  I was selfish and spent some of my precious little sewing time on making some clothes for me for summer.  I definitely have enough fabric for several new wardrobes…..errrrr…outfits for me. 😉

First up we have this lovely green and white outfit that I made a few weeks ago.  Just simple knits, and the green and white one is super light.  No patterns were harmed in the making of these pieces…so it was the usual cut and sew and see how it turns out.

Next are some shorts for Kailan.  I still have to make some of the tops to go with them, yet.  Last week I entered the hallowed halls of the fabric store and found some super duper cute fabric for shirts for Kailan.  Oh, he was happy with the choices.  I have the shirts cut and ready to rock and roll, so hopefully by next week I will have some more boy stuff to share.  

These are from the shorts pattern I used before, only I redrafted it to have the front pockets enclosed underneath.  I like it better that way.  The tops that go with them are just tanks I bought last Fall on clearance with an applique on it.  I had three cut out at once so I made them assembly line fashion.  Much quicker that way!

Anya is feeling a bit left out, but I’m sure I will get to her soon.  I at least need to make her a 4th of July outfit, right??  I think she will just be getting a twirl skort or a simple shirred halter dress.  We’ll see.

What does everyone else have to share this week?
