Zebra Baby

This is a swim shirt and leggings I made for baby girl, age 12 months.  First time with this design. Made for a friend at church. Her daughter is fair skinned and needed a little coverage!   I used my new baby lock serger, and my babylock coverstitch machine to get the finished look. This was fun to make. I'd like to make more for ready to ship items in the etsy store.     Today I got a picture from the beach :-)

Gainesboro Poke Sallet Festival 2016

This post has nothing to do with sewing... just a day in the life!   Last weekend there was a festival in our little town. I took my youngest daughter and the camera for a tour around the square. I've wanted to take some photos of local shops for quite some time now.. and I just don't usually have the camera with me, when I have had the chance to look around. I took this opportunity to practice some photography. My hubby gave me his camera when he updated to new equipment and I am very slowly picking up how to use it. I've used it in auto mode for some time now, but I'm trying out more of the functions now. Its nothing spectacular but I'm learning and I have fun! I've recently been playing with the white balance. First stop was the Pickett Fence (an antiques and more place)  The owner of the Pickett Fence is always painting anything and everything. Here she's painted coordinating things in peaches and turquoises. No doubt for the Summer season
