Current project list

Okay. So. I had a baby six weeks ago. Emi calls him "Oxy". He's the most adorable baby boy in the history of the world, of course. He was born without anesthesia of any kind, since it all happened kind of fast. By the time I convinced Downwood that, no really, this is for real labor, things Had Progressed. He ended up dropping me off at the ER and barely made it to the room in time. It all turned out for the best and I've let my sister know that she should NOT buy a house more than a half hour from the hospital. I don't wish that car ride on ANYONE. Seriously, don't do that. :)

Existing project list (in no particular order):

• Downwood - Vest: Almost done! Needs hand sewing and buttons put on.
  
• Galieth - Shirt: Done sewing. Needs grommets.
  
• Galieth - Coat: Almost done! Needs hand sewing and buttons put on.
  
• Galieth - Vest: Almost done! Needs hand sewing and buttons put on.
  
• Bex - Bodice: Done and delivered!
  
• Bex - Skirt: Mostly done. Need to fit the waistband and continue to let the bias stretch out before hemming.
  
• Bex - Coat: Done! Ready to deliver!
  
• Emi - Giraffe dress: Pattern and fabric located. Not started.
  
• Emi - Dinosaur skirt 1: Pattern and fabric located. Not started.
  
• Emi - Dinosaur skirt 2: Pattern and fabric located. Not started.
  
• Me - Blouse: Pattern cut out, fabric washed but not ironed.
  
• Me - Skirt: Pattern determined, fabric washed and on the ironing board.
  
• Me - Vest: Pattern and fabric found, checking sizing with a test vest.
  
• Amber - Vest: Pattern found, fabric cut out, beginning assembly.

We'll probably be going for a car trip sometime this week that I can use to get the hand sewing and the buttons on the vests. The coat's probably too bulky for me to manage in the car. Not sure on that one. Emi doesn't take reliable naps or go to bed at a reasonable hour anymore, so I don't have good hand sewing time.
