Not bad if I don't say so myself

Joey loves and expects me to know everything. If there is one thing I can teach my kids is to try. Joey has pajama day at school tomorrow. He remembered me joking about being the van Trapp family when I made Marysa pillow case dress out of some old curtain panels I had. I was joking how I was going I was going to make clothes for everyone in the family and go on a singing bike ride.

As you probably can guess Joey asked me to make him pajama bottoms out of the same curtains. I have never made pants. Lots of dresses, and blankets but not even one pair of pants. I didn't even have a pattern. At least if I had a pattern then I would probably do OK.  My little boy wanted pajama bottoms, he wanted skinny cut and he wanted his Mama to make them out of that curtain.

Soooo I did. I'd have to say they look alright for no pattern or know how. Joey is beaming and understands how he needs to bring extra clothes to school just in case of a split in the duff. All is good in the Land of Super Mom and Boy Wonder.



Today was fun but so busy

I'm starting to live my dream. I'm selling my blankets. I have been making blankets for about 15 years. Given as gifts and used in my own family,

Today I made two blankets, and cut and started to pieced together together a Memory blanket.  The two items I think people will like. My kids helped out. I had Marysa and Joey tacking patches and pulling pins from finished blankets.  It was nice to see them excited.

Joey wants me to keep the the blankets. All I can think is my house has more blankets than any house on earth and really we don't need to keep another.

Marysa and I also hit the sale at Joann's. More bright fabric hopefully to draw some attention to my website.

Oh the website is MarysaJane.com . A bunch of gently used Fluff is there now but I do have one of my creations up so far. Hop over and tell me what you think. I'd love feed back.
