Okay, this is the deal: My sister-in-law asked me to make my nephew 5 pairs of pants for fall/winter, and I would love to get them done as soon as possible. The only thing is I need to find a pattern that fits him. The ones pictured below were made to see how they fit. These pants are now sitting in an envelope waiting to be mailed to my mother so that she can tell me about the fit, but she won't see Nephew until Sunday. Afterwards, Nephew can were these as pj pants.
Today is her 30th birthday. Here is to many many more years. 
So, my dad loved the coaster that I made for my Sister-In-Law so much that I had to make some for him. I hope he likes these. 
I don't have any sewing planned for tomorrow night, but I do have several things that need cut out.
I made Nephew a Clever Little Cape by Apple Cyder. I asked Nephew if I could take his picture with it on. He shook his head no, but I tried anyway. This is Bo trying to put it on Nephew.
This is Nephew immediately taking it off. He did carry it around with him, but he didn't want to wear it. Who knows he may grow into it. I would recommend this pattern to anyone. It went together really quickly.
I haven't posted this no-sew blanket I made. These are great for gifts. This one is really soft.
Finally, I don't usually post my good deal that I get a CVS, but today's deals were to good not to talk about. All of these items pictured cost me $8.33 out of pocket.
I now need to go help Bo clean the house. Hopefully, I can sew tonight.
I purchased this fleece with plans to make a no sew blanket as a Christmas present which I've finished already. I love these as gifts. The Tinkerbell fabric will be used to make either McCall's 5252 or McCall's 3402 for our Disney trip.
This just other fabric I wanted or fabric that will be used in Halloween Costumes.
Notions I purchased that were 50% off, and I can always use something new. The large yardage of elastic is for Nephew's pants.
This is going to be used to make a cape for Nephew. This weekend we played "capes" with just the yard of fabric. Nineteen months olds have the best belly laughs. I wish I could bottle it and listen to it on days when I need a good pick me up. I hope to have this done when I keep Nephew this weekend. 
Bo's 84 year old great aunt broke her hip today so thoughts and prayers would be appreciated. 
I know that I get my creativity from both of my parents. Just look at what my dad made himself. He has to use a cane on stable ground so no doubt he would need one in the sand. He couldn't find anything that would work so he went to Lowes to find what he needed. He ended up using PVC pipe to make an all weather cane that he could use in the water without worrying about ruining it. 
Nephew enjoys the beach.
Nothing, but clear skies. We set up to stay on the beach all day.
Teaching Nephew how to play paddle ball. He took to this really well. 
Then he wanted to learn how to play shuffleboard.
This is what the water looked like when we left.
