I know... Me? Sewing? Yes....I actually can sew. It's crazy to think that I can sew, but I can. I actually used to have a handmade purse/gift bag company that I did with my friend in California.
So....my inspiring and talented friend here in Florida has me all pumped up to sew our girl's Easter dress and ties for the boys. So today/tonight my sewing adventure begins....
Here's what I'm making...
For the BOYS

AWESOME!!! I love them!!! I love to sew also...and hope to get my own bag company off the ground www.pinkdaisybagsandtees.blogspot.com baby steps though...can;t wait to see your finished product!!!
Wow, Tara! I am so impressed! Good luck. I can't wait to see what you create!
I can sew curtains, blankets, and anything else that pretty much only involves straight lines and no patterns...I'm jealous!
Those are some adorable projects! :)
Wow you are so talented. I love them. I wish I could sew like that. Have a great weekend.
I used to live in Tampa when I was stationed at MacDill. The Cove apts and Pavillions at Ballast Pt.
Great blog! Care for a link exchange?

Tara!! How wonderful! I am so very impressed!!! Maybe (MAYBE) I'll look into making a tie for JK!
Sorry to bother you! Could you e-mail me the link for the tie tutorial? There was a problem when I clicked on the hyperlink. Thanks Tara!!!!
cute, cute, cute!
Ties seem like they'd be difficult. Who am I kidding? I'm not the greatest seamstress, anything is difficult for me, aside from pillow cases! LOL Good luck!
Can't wait to see what you come up with! I love to sew too, when I have time. Which seems like never these days... :( Show us some pics!!
Wow. I've never thought of making ties. That looks great.
Hi Tara! I am new to SITS and found you through Chic Chick Media.
I love your blog...and after reading your bio...we have a lot in common...I must have my diet coke too! I also hate laundry...mainly because there is always so much of it!
I bought my daughter a sewing machine for Christmas...I don't sew and the machine is in her closet. I thought maybe when she is out of school for the summer that maybe someone could teach both of us. I know she will be good at it...she is good with crafts and catches onto things quickly.
Anyway...I'll be back to read your blog and I look forward to getting to know you better!
