I consider Penelope to be somewhat of a tomboy. She loves to play with cars, loves spiderman, loves to play in the dirt, and will play anything that involves a ball. But then she can be super girlie! She loves to play dress up, put on make up, have tea parties, and play with dolls. So when we received this awesome Twinkletoes dress from Southern Rags she immediately fell in love when she put it on. She doesn’t have any long dresses and so this was something new and fun!

I bet she would have worn it to sleep if I let her. I love how it’s a dressy dress but she was still able to play in it and be comfortable throughout the entire day. It’s 100% cotton AND machine washable. Awesomeness. Having a textiles and apparel background I can honestly say that the dress is well made with quality construction that can withstand everyday life of the little ones! That’s always nice. :)

quilt project and a giveaway winner

Category: everyday | June 1st, 2011

today is the day with the winner! but first i wanted to share how my quilt is coming along…:)

as you can see it has taken over the dining table. husband is not a fan of that….oops. i’m not really following a pattern. in fact, i’m totally winging it. haha. i am going with a little pattern of the white squares. i had about 5 times more of those squares than any other color so that’s what is going down. i’m planning on making it big enough for a queen size bed, so we shall see if i have enough already pre-cut thanks to my grannie. :)


i’m loving it so far. i only get to work on it late at night when penny pants goes to bed…and lately that has been really late. oh well. i still need to figure out what i’m going to do for the back part. well enough rambling…here’s what you’ve been waiting for.

and the lovely winner of the spiral roses headband is:

**yay bonita! email me (kristenmcashan@gmail.com) with your address and i’ll send it your way!
**thank you to everyone who entered!! this was my biggest number of entries for a giveaway. makes me happy…and makes me want to do more giveaways!! what would y’all like to win??
