Erin made some ... and then Alicia did too ... and it looked so pretty and yummy ... and it turns out it is even easier than I thought!

Walking with Abby

Abby and I had a particularly nice walk around the trail the other day. The stirrings of Fall are in the air and we are entering my favourite time of year. The bugs are disappearing and the air has a crisp tang to it but the afternoons are still warm and it feels good to be outside. Whenever possible, walks with Abby involve going around the lake near our house. It's a well maintained trail full of pretty, and ever changing, views and just the right length for us.

I thought I'd share our walk with you. I hope you find it as pleasant as we did.

The Mendocino Sundress and Some Knitting

Posted by Peanut in SummerSewingKnittingDress

I'm finished my second sundress and love it dearly. It's my first project with a Liberty print and I think it was completely worth the price. Lots of the prints have a vintagey feel to me and I though this one was so summery with its fruit and flowers (the strawberries are my favourite).

Just a Quick Sundress

Posted by Peanut in SummerSewingDress

Last Monday was sticky. I've lived in the north most of my life and just can't handle heat at all. When it gets hot I want to be wearing the coolest thing in my closet and it will not involve any waistbands or tight fitting sleeves or body hugging bodice. A skirt and tank top usually work but really I wanted something totally loose and I wanted it quickly.
