I have started my summer sewing





Here is Amelia in her new bathers. I wanted something modest and stylish. I had this pattern sent out from the States a couple of years ago. Click here to see the site I bought them from.

Today I also helped Brigette sew her first pair of shorts. She is going on camp on Thursday for one night and wanted a new outfit to wear. I will put some photos up of the shorts and top when we finish her top.

As you are sewing for summer, we pulled out the winter coats! We also had the first snowflakes yesterday-thank goodness they didn't stick! I am so not ready!

Cute bather!

Ugh Snow. It sounds cold Therese. I hate winter with a passion. I really feel the cold. Tonight we took the children to the pool after tea and I was sitting there with a jumper on. The children all went swimming and I was freezing.

We have very warm summers with temps over 100 for days on end. I like our spring time though.

Great job!!! I checked out the site and it is wonderful to see those modest swim wears. Thanks, Therese!

So cute! I love the way she is posing. :o)

Therese said...

she is a real poser Kalona. I laughed when she first posed like that.

The bathers are very stylish and she looks great in them. I'm going to pass on the link to my sister as she is always having trouble finding decent bathers for her daughter. Well done Therese :)

Love those bathers Therese, you have done an excellent job with the sewing machine, you should be very proud, looks like Amelia is.

My oldest girl is Amelia too. I'm always so happy when I found some Amelias in the blogosphere. My grandmother is Amelia too and also her mother ( both is Heaven ). They had a lot of cousins called Amelia.
