So I'm working away at perhaps the hardest sewing challenge I have met yet. One cannot find a Squid sewing pattern. And thus, I've had to think, figure, plot, plan and pray- that each cut and stitch I make will result in a sound choice. And with Halloween around the corner- I just don't have time (or extra fabric) for mistakes. I feel a little bit of pressure to get this project done in time- and have found myself wondering "who makes costumes for their kids after just having a baby"? I'm sure their are sewing goddesses out there who have/are doing the same thing. Yet, I know that if it wasn't for the love of my little man, and his wonderfully weird request for a Squid costume; I wouldn't be sewing right now- I'd be still on my Baby-moon-cation.
But while I work away it's very peaceful in this sewing room...the view out my window is so nice as is the view to my right, a sweet baby sleeping as I stitch away. Just as my other little ones have done before her, sleeping by my side as the machine whirs away.
