some sewing and Grandkids

The poncho Barbie is wearing is a gift for her friend. Then I had made 2 the weekend before last for 2 of my Grand daughters birthdays, Happy Birthday Destiny and Madison!!! The rest of the photos are of the grandkids spending the day at Grandma's and Grandpa's house for dinner and fun! We had a glorious day!!! I had tons of fun and remembered how much I love little kids and how we all need to look at life through there eyes! Thanks kids for a wonderful day!!!

Sewing and my diet news

First I have to share I have lost 43 lbs and am eating healthier than I have in years! I fast walk (with a 2 lb weight in each hand) 2 miles 6 days a wk. I am so proud of me!!! This is a splurge day hubby cooked me this wonderful meal and it looked so pretty on the plate I had to share.

Next I had to share the Hello Kitty purse I made this is the lining I ended up using Garfield fabric as I am broke and had this on hand. Hope she loves it

And this is the finished purse. I went online and found a coloring page of Hello Kitty then enlarged it and used it for the base pattern. Then added the eyes and nose with felt, I used embroidery floss for the whiskers. And I added a Macrame cord for the handle. Turned out pretty cute. I know she will like it as she is only 6 :)
