must write

Must write.  Everyday this is what my brain is telling me.  But my hands find other work to do.  So, I have missed you!  Here's a little bit of what I have been up to this past week.

Handmade Parade went really great for me.  There were so many new vendors there that I haven't seen before, a lot of original work.  I got some of my end of the school year, teacher shopping done.  The best part of the day is that Good Day Sacramento was there bright and early that morning.  The featured quite a bit of my things.  You can see a link to the video clip in the right column of my blog and here.  And to hear more of the day here's what Evie had to say about all of the handmade wonder!



This past Friday, my girl graduated from school.  Preschool that is! I was busy making her little dress.  Which I had always wanted to do.  She picked out the fabric.  A cute little vintage print with a white background and little pink and brown/green flowers.  And we even chose the pattern together.  It was one that I have been wanting to make with little puff sleeves that remind me of a peasant blouse.



Well, she didn't want to wear it!  Ok, I was one disappointed momma.  I tried not making a big deal about it,  pick your battles, right.  But I had told everyone that I was making her dress.  So I just pulled out two other katie jean creations and let her pick which one she wanted to wear for her very special day.



She still looked so cute and pretty.  And she was happy with her decision.  That is what really matters.

I can just guess what her wedding day will be like!
