Sweet little dresses

 Good afternoon everyone

Well this week hasn’t been the kind to go for a walk or potter in the garden.

It has been a very wet few days,I think the wettest August on record. So I caught up on lots of sewing.  I love making smocked baby dresses and rompers.  It’s so relaxing.  I sell them in my Etsy shop,Etsy.com/shop/JeanetteO’Donnell,all lower case.  It’s just a hobby I enjoy.  Selling some allows me to purchase more fabric. Who can resist pretty fabric.  I had such a lot of scraps from making them, I decided to give them away.  I mean I had a humungus bag full so advertised them on market place giving them to anyone interested in using them up.  I thought it would be a quilter who would be interested. I have made a couple of patchwork quilts in the past but couldn’t seem to get around to do another.  So give them away I would.  I was a little disappointed that the first person to contact me only wanted them to make jam pot covers, I mean she would need to make a million to use them up.  Quite a few quilters contacted me too, but I had already given them to the first caller.  I used to take them to our library where a group of ladies sewed quilts for charity,but the library closed and I don’t know where they went which is a shame really.

Soooo I just forgot about the scraps and started making more LOL

These are some of my creations
