Lady Bug Dress and Project Overhaul

I made this cute little dress for my neighbor's daughter who turns 1 this week.

However after making it and seeing all my MANY flaws on it I think I might put it in storage for the daughter I may never have and try to make another, better one, with less flaws for my neighbor. I made my own pattern for this dress so it was a bit tricky and dont tell Corey this next part, but when I, ummm... tried it on Asher, shhhh, it didn't fit very well around the chest which I think I solved the problem with buttons and loops in the back but still I think the more dresses I make from this pattren the better they'll get.

It's pretty cute none the less and IF I had a daughter she would totally wear it.

I even made these cute little flowers to put on the dress.

PROJECT OVERHAUL

We are in the process of remodeling our kitchen.

It's starting to drive me crazy not having a kitchen.

I have done a lot of work on it, and have suffered a few battle wounds in the process.

While taking out a wall I sliced my hand open with a pry-bar and then when I was taking out the soffet(?) I think I got friberglass in my eye and I'm afraid it will never be the same. Friday morning I woke up and it was swollen and I've had pink eye before and that is not what it was. My eye hurt for 3 days straight and it's not better still but doesn't hurt as bad but it still doesn't look normal either. I hope it goes back to normal eventually because right now one eye is bigger than the other and I look kinda funny. Anyways, I'll be happy when its all done and I have a beautiful kitchen!!!
