Girls night out put on by the amazing Jessica at Me Sew Crazy happened! It was so much fun! I would do a full recap of the nights event, butI didn’t take any pictures… The restaurant was dark but lovely and I really just had a great time meeting some ladies I have admired for some time and it was great to meet them face to face and some who I didn’t really know at all but it was great meeting such a wonderful group of ladies and we all had something in common. The love of sewing! We also walked away with some sweet swag, it was a great night!
Since the Girls Night Out event was a little ways away from home, the whole family decided we would make a weekend out of it. The kids loved staying at a hotel for the night (what makes hotels so much more fun than sleeping at home?) The kids and my husband caught a pre-season basketball game and then the next morning we all went out for breakfast outside.
We finished off fall break with a little trip to the build a bear workshop. The kids loved it and it was so worth the peace and quiet it earned me 🙂
Even though I have been failing to post the rest of my projects (even the ones I made during KCWC) I have been sewing up a storm, including working on 3 new patterns. I will call it nesting. I am pretty excited about this pattern… once I get the quirks figured out 🙂 (this particular one is for baby to be since testing out a pattern in mini versions takes almost no fabric)
I went shopping with my husband for some new jeans… I believe he tried on 30 pairs of jeans we finally walked away with one pair… men. Lucky for me one of our stops was at JCPenny which has Sephora, my skin has been horrible with this pregnancy, I mean horrible, so I put a call into my super hero (shiwn) and she saved my day… Argon Oil. It is a miracle, and I bet you now all wish you had a shiwn you could call 🙂

that gray & white baby outfit with the pink bow is absolutely adorable !!!<br />I have gotten a lot of vintage buttons from vintage or antique stores, they can also be found at flea markets, estate sales, etc.<br />But if I'm looking for a very specific kind of button (that I can't find anywhere), then it would have to be etsy…
