Since I’m getting older, lets talk about the weather shall we.
It’s been over 100 degrees here in Austin for a week now. With no relief in sight. I’ve nested. I’ve worked late into the night on Craft Hope. And I’ve sewn.
I had a few custom orders come in for these fiesta dresses, so I was up last night making them. They just scream summertime.
I was thinking about creating a tutorial for them if anyone is interested. Anyone interested? And of course, I’m always taking custom orders for them so just let me know.
In other maternity news… I had been dreading buying a maternity swimsuit. Mamas, I’m sure you can relate. Funny thing is that all of our children have been planned and this is now my third summer pregnancy. Good times.
I finally found a plaid purple number that stole my heart at Target. So today instead of hiding indoors, I took the kids to the pool in my new purple swimsuit. And I have to say that it’s the best day I’ve had all summer. Soaking up the sun. Taking a breather. Playing with my kids. Watching them learn to swim. The ‘mama watch this… mama catch me… mama this way.’
Summertime bliss.
