Fabric Hair Bows

I am easily distracted, instead of finishing the romper that  I was making for my daughter... I started making her hair bows.  I'm sure that I'm not the only one with this problem, right?

 

I was rummaging around in a store today and found this pattern.  I decided that I had to buy even though I haven't used the 40 to 50 other one's that I already at home. Maybe my problem is that I like the thought of sewing better than the actual act of it... I read other sewing blogs, some seem to whip out a project every few days.  Whatever "sewing bug" they have certainly hasn't stung me.

This is my next sewing project,  a cute little romper for my daughter.  No surprise that it's not for me!!! Maybe one day, I'll actually sew something for myself.

Why didn't I take a picture???

A few weeks ago my family and I went to Cincinnati for vacation, while there we went window shopping at the mall.  A dress caught my eye and I thought, I’d love to make it. Unfortunately, I didn’t take a picture of it. Since then I’ve been searching for a picture of the dress and a pattern that is similar to my memory of the dress. So far I’ve found neither… If only I knew how to make a pattern.  I’ll let you know if I’m ever successful in finding or making this dress.

Finishing what I started....

Is it just me or does anyone else start on projects and for one reason or another not finish it. I think that I get bored or lose interest so I stop working on it.   Here's one example, I started sewing this jumper for my daughter last summer but I never finished it.  I pulled it out last week, tried it on her to make sure that it still fits, now I can finished what I started. I got a chance to do my first buttonhole on my "not so new" machine!
