Plow Days...and a pretty pinny

I know I haven't posted in awhile - but that doesn't mean I haven't been crafting. In fact, I've been giving my sewing machine quite a work out lately.

First up - An old-fashioned dress for Madeline for "Plow Days". You can read about the event and see pictures of last year's dress here.

Of course, the day ended up being quite chilly, so we had to cover it up with a sweater for the actual event. Her cousin is just a day younger (and a foot taller!) than her, so they were partners in crime for the day.

The next day just happened to be "old-fashioned day" at church, so we got some more mileage out of her outfit.

Photo-op with the horse and carriage. She was quite pleased with herself!

Will giving us his unimpressed face...

I have a few other projects that are currently a work-in-progress, so when I can find time between changing diapers and working on the red lipstick stain currently on my carpet (yes, that actually happened. sigh.), I'll share those too.

Notes:
The dress and pinafore is from this pattern. Definitely not just for old-fashioned days! I plan to make another one of these for every day play!
