Cuppa Things

First, please go watch this video my friend, Shana, posted on her site. It's regarding the Born Alive Infant Protection Act.
Second, on Monday, 8 flyers were removed from our Infobox on our FSBO sign! Yesterday, nine were removed! No calls yet, but at least people are stopping!
Third, I finished the dress from the man's shirt. It's super cute, but a little snug. I doubt she'll get to wear it. Lucy may get to next year sometime. Sadly, I had cut out some fabric to make dress from the same pattern, so now she has two dresses she can't wear! Actually the second one is a bit roomier, so MAYBE she will get to wear it...at least a couple of times. I love the fabric though, and I learned my lesson about eyeballing. It's funny because I measured her waist not even thinking I should also measure her chest and under her arms. Oh well.

You remember the shirt before?

And after:
And then the copycat made from fabric (minus elastic sleeves):
Like the dog's bowls in the background? Just keepin' it classy...

  1. Oh come on! How adorable is that!!!??? I'm going to have to send this post to my mom who loves doing things like that with her Goodwill finds!! TOOOOO cute!!



    Oh, and totally off topic. Being new to blogger and all, how did you add Xanga sites and other sites to your "sites I follow" in your profile? Can't figure it out for the life of me! (Although I'm sure the answer is just under my nose!!)

  3. Jess,
    All you have to do is go to Customize (in the upper right hand corner of your blog page) and then where it shows the template/layout of your blog, click on the section for blogs you follow, and you can add them there by URL or from your following list by Google. Does that make sense?
