Hiya!

It's been a splendid summer here: lots of sunshine and fresh air for the kidlets, and although I've been mostly playing the part of the exhausted pregnant lady, I have managed some sewing and knitting craftiness for a top-secret project (hint: starts with "e" and rhymes with "betsy").



Here's a sneak peek:
This little romper was a pair of buttery soft, but ill-fitting linen women's pants in its previous life. The addition of some happy stripey fabric facing (upcycled again-- woo hoo!), and a cheerful little embroidered bird makes it something special, don't you think?


Oh, and I used these vintage buttons for the straps. (from Etsy seller kikivontiki)

Vintage buttons.... sigh....
