Old McDonald Had a Farm...

I have been smocking this outfit for no less than 9 months, and it took me 3 hours this afternoon to put it all together - ha! That's just sad, but true!!! For some reason, I COULD NOT FINISH the smocking on this project. I started it, then shortly afterward, I found out that I was pregnant.... It was supposed to be in a brown corduroy longall for the Fall, but I'm SOOOOO glad that didn't work out because I think this pattern is just perfect for a Springtime Seersucker Shortall. I wonder if I can get Carter to sing the song while wearing it?!?! That would be so fun!

I even felt spunky enough to add a belt to the back to break up the big 3T boringness :-)

First of all, you are really amazing me with this stuff! You should start a little business!! And secondly, is that child seriously in 3T's? WOW! That's what size Jacob wears in shirts and pants, but he's still in a 2T from last year in shorts!!! Get that boy playing football...you know in like 10 years! :)

Thanks Crystal! I don't really want to start a business...mostly because I don't want to ever be "forced" to sew...that and I don't want to feel "behind" in something I enjoy so much for now. Maybe one day when kids are all in school I could sell things. For now, I'll just sew for my kids when I can :-) And YES, he is wearing a 3T in pretty much everything. He can still wear 2T's in shirts, but 2T pants are tight on his belly and 2T JonJons are too short from shoulder to crotch, but 3T's will be the only thing he can wear by the end of the summer, so that's what I'm making...they can be a little big for now! He's just a BIG KID!

I think it is too cute. I love your Easter outfits too. Just found your blog from Sallye's. If you don't remember me, I taught at Harvest with you. Hope all is well.
