The one thing you can count on is change. Here in New England the seasons are changing. The leaves are beginning to change colors and fall off the trees, acorns are every where, tour buses are making their way through small towns, apple cider is being sold on the town common, along with apple cider doughnuts (yum), the rains have started and the temperatures have dropped. I love the fall in New England. The other change that is taking place is the switching of the wardrobe. This is one of my least favorite things to do. We spend a couple of days going through every ones dressers and closets trying on all of last years fall and winter clothes, handing down what doesn't fit and making a list of what is needed for this year. And then the fun begins, a trip to the fabric store and a finger walk through the patterns and what do I end up with? A new wardrobe for kids, and hours of work for me. I hope I can get it all done before the snow flies.
I hope to show some finished products in the next couple of weeks. With any luck I just might be able to get it all done before they grow out of them. It is times like these I wish I had a sewing room where I could just leave stuff out all of the time. Instead we don't eat dinner. It's a trade off I'm willing to make right now.
