It has been overcast and quite cool here today, so I spent the day sewing. I thought it was about time that I made some little boys instead of little girls all the time.
Benjamin the little bear was completed this afternoon at 3pm.I have put him in a pair of little plaid rompers, definitely no lacy frills for him!I was actually quite pleased with how he turned out, he most definitely looks boyish!
I also finished a special request for a customer, this little piggy in her bright red and green dress, she will be going to Spain. I was asked to do the dress in those colors for a celebration that they will be having in November, I believe it is the same colors as there flag. I was starting to get tired as the day went on, so I had to leave this poor little piggy without her clothes, but I did manage to find her a small towel so she wouldn't feel so self conscious, especially with a little boy bear around the house.All in all I was very pleased with what I manage to accomplish, it was one of those rare days when everything seemed to go right.
I hope it's been a good day wherever you are!

I rather like the pig with no clothes, she looks so cute wrapped in the towel. You could dab on a few mud coloured blotches for a finishing touch. Pigs love to bathe in mud to keep cool! x
I am laughing... the towel is great! I love your little piggies so it's not surprising you are getting requests! And Benjamin Bear is very cute too! That was always my favorite boy name!
Hi Kathy, I just love the little romper - so adorably cute and boyish too. It looks like you got a lot of sewing done which I definately admire. It's hard for me to be at the machine all day, because I get tired so quickly. I hope your little Spanish one enjoys her new home and the festivities to come.
