First up are 2 curtains. One's a roman shade and the other's a panel. I need to make one more of each, but need more fabric :( The roman shade is for french windows that lead outside and our front door is opposite this door and that's where the panel is.

The dark brown is grosgrain ribbon, just so it's not so boring and plain.

Up next is a gift for a shower tomorrow night. I have lots of friends that are pg right now :)
She's expecting a little girl so I made her this cute knit dress

I also made her 6 matching wipes and a bib that matches her dipe bag I made her (she already has it)

Oh, I've been looking for something to make as a gift for a friend of mine who just had a little girl. That little tank dress is perfect!! Was there a pattern, or did you morph it on your own? Beautiful gifts, at any rate, she'll be so pleased to receive them.

Thanks :) The dress is from butterick 5896. I just left off the sleeves and added the FOE. It worked pretty well! You could use any lap t pattern and add the skirt to it. It's just 2 rectangles sewn together and gathered, HTH :)
