I've really brought out my "Jennifer Trend" side the last few weeks. Here are some of my creations:
Exhibit A: "The Francy" This pink-toned dress with a tiny floral print was made bn my me without a pattern:
Exhibit B: "Floral Dream" My first attempt at using a baby dress pattern, which was actually much harder. Sleeves are much harder than they look, people. These sleeves were sewn on backwards. I'm just going to pretend I did that on purpose. I like this one because it falls all the way to the floor.
Exhibit B: "The Betty" This red and white checkerboard vintage fabric really is vintage fabric. A woman in my ward was giving away some her old fabric, and I got this, among a few other treasures. I used the pattern as a reference for this dress, along with some of my own ideas. And I actually sewed the sleeves on correctly!
Here are some recent milestones in Francesca's life:-She has two teeth, both bottom
-She crawls occasionally, mostly army-style, but I've seen her on her hands and knees a few times
-She thinks Michael and Wesley are hilarious, she will laugh and laugh until giving herself the hiccups
-She has lass than eight weeks until her first birthday!
-She has recently recoved from two double ear infections, back to back. We are so grateful she is all better.
-Just a few hours ago, while taking pictures of her in her new dress, she stood up for a few seconds all on her own! (first time ever!)
-She has a huge appetite, with lamb, beef, oatmeal, pears, carrots, and sweet potato puffs being her favorites.
-She is an awesome sleeper, thank goodness, usually sleeping from 8:00PM-7:00AM
-She brings such a sweet beautiful spirit into our lives, and our home. We can't imagine life without her!
