Our nightmare run of sickness has not allowed me anytime for sewing. From a fractured elbow for Master R (hospital said it wasnt fractured on Saturday then I got a call back Wednesday apologising for the misdiagnosis ARGH) and with Master's C and B having fevers in excess of 40 degrees for three days running Im over it! Master C still has an all over body rash and Master B has tonsilitis. Did I also mention that they both have chesty coughs on top of that aswell as Gastro!!! Im feeling like the universe is against me doing any sort of sewing, its really testing my sanity. Hopefully the Antibiotics wil kick in and all will be well.
I caved last week and did a Spotlight order over the phone as I didnt have time to visit my local store and I wanted a lot of the fabric that was on sale. I also picked up some fitted flannelette sheets which were a bargain. Above is a pic of some of the marvellous fabrics I have chosen, the same as a lot of other EB Newbie Sewers, we must have good taste, Im loving the Blue 2 range.
I did manage with the help of my mum (who was visiting to help me with sick kids) to get the Non-Sewing Fairy/Ballerina skirt done. I do want to reinforce it with some sewing so it doesnt unravel but was so happy with how easy it was and how good it looks. Miss G will be having a Fairy Party whern she turns 1 next month so this one was a practice run, I will be experimenting with some different colours over the next month or so.

Wow sounds like you had a bad week. How cute is G with her little skirt on. Love the material you brought, I always get drawn to material which are pale in colour and to flowers too. LOL.
