This WONDERfilled Life...

Underwear, skivvies, underpants, panties, lingerie, briefs, etc...we don't talk about them but we all wear  them...or... ahem...we should  wear them! I rarely buy myself new "unmentionables", mostly because they're not seen in public so what's the big deal if they're less than new looking (or feeling)? But the fact is, as I have said many times before, when you look good you feel good and everyone can see that confidence, and this absolutely applies to your skivvies! When I was pregnant with Bubba I made one pair of undies, I admittedly used the wrong kind of fabric (not enough recovery) and used bamboo knit for the bands.  The end result was a comfortable fit but as the day grew longer...so did the briefs! I avoided making any new ones until I was done with Bubba in the baby stage.  I knew my body would be changing throughout the year I was nursing and I thought it pointless to spend the time, energy and money on something that may not fit well after a f...

Week 2 I finished this cute vest for Bubba early this week.  I had started it over Christmas break and hoped to have it finished by New Years so myself and the kiddos could match for the holiday. That obviously didn't happen but I am happy that all three pieces are done now.  I hope to get some pictures of us all together at some point.  I'd make the Hubs one but he only wear black so...  This vest is actually the same pattern as the take home outfit I made for Bubba's arrival and his Christmas PJ's this year.  It is all part of Stitch Upon a Time's Muse Playsuit .  I had I wanted to make something to coordinate with P and me but I didn't want to make a full fledged sleeper/romper again.  Then I noticed the pattern came with a sleeveless option and I thought, BINGO! Overall it turned out great.  This is the third time I have made this pattern and I think I learn something each time.  I'm always a little to close to my projects and that...
