I went fabric shopping with Heidi this week. It was dangerous. We went in to choose fabrics for her upcoming booth at the retro craft fair, we chose quite a few fun patterns, but I ended up leaving with a million different colors of felt and fabrics. Oops. Also, my amateur self never knew how to pick out (or use) patterns, but now with Heidi’s help I will have a new addiction to finding cute patterns at the store. I have a ton of projects I really want to attempt to do, but of course this always depends on what Marlowe’s little self. I have been having a really hard time sleeping lately due to nightmares (thats a whole other story), but with my lack of sleep I guess I will have more time for 2 in the morning projects. I’ve made an apron last night for my niece’s friends birthday party. I have a few more to make and hopefully I will find some time for hand stitched projects. 🙂
Heidi is going to make Marlowe these cute little dresses! 🙂
Heidi is planning on making a ton of fun aprons for the craft fair. I hope the fabrics I helped her choose are a big hit! Eric said he might even team up with his mom to sell some t-shirts. I hope so! It would be so nice! I love his creativity 🙂
And the kiddie apron I just finished:

@Boston to Nashville- I eventually want to start up an etsy. It's a bit difficult to get anything done right now living alone and taking care of the little one solo-full time! But one day!
@Carey- I'm sure there are much better fabric stores in Chicago than here. I'm certain of it. I saw your post with the fabric swatches online you found. I'm convinced the way to go is online.
@Miss Mallory- Thank you! I plan on selling a bunch of things in the (hopefully not too distant) future 🙂
@Bekah- You know she needs one 🙂
@Jazmyn Alexandria- Craft store = heaven and hell. Need more money and more time!
@Claudia – thanks dear 🙂

Your daughter is so cute! I need to go to the craft store soon. Thanks for reminding me lol. 🙂

Drea! That is adorable! I want to make Ocean one!
I agree, Etsy is the way you should go, or hell, sell them on your blog!
That apron is adorable, love the fabric combination! You definably should sell those!
Those are amazing fabrics! I need to find a larger fabric store here in Chicago. I have a bit of a fabric addiction.

Drea – Do you have an etsy store? I'll buy! Love your work.
