If you are a Mom and have access to the internet, you have seen them. You don't even have to be a Pinterest addict to know what I am talking about. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Those cute little packed lunches with star shaped veggies and heart shaped fruit intended to <strike>prove you are the better Mom</strike> lure your little darling into consuming healthy food. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is not a discussion about the merits of such food preparation. What I want to know is this : <b>What becomes of all those little leftover bits</b> of meat, cheese and veggie after you have carved Mt. Rushmore from a cucumber??</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sure you can sometimes use the bits in a quesadilla or quiche or something.... but on a daily basis. Seriously? I have a enough trouble coordinating dinners and turning leftover roast into soup etc. If I also had to mentally track what my lunch leftovers were going to be and how to use them efficiently things would get crazier than they already are.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So what do all of you cute-lunch making moms really do with those extra bits? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

She immediately decided that the bias strips on the dress should be in an ombre/ gradient in various shades of pink. It was a simple sheath dress so I used a trusty bodice pattern I had made for her already and lengthened it.<br />

This is where we go "oops!" - Pink is a Miriam color. Purple not so much.... and this came out pretty darn purple, more purple than this pictures shows. This gives you an idea of how the dress would have looked.</div>

Thankfully shretch knit is forgiving, and stretches. A bit of cutting and what would have been a dress for little sister becomes a stylish and comfy skirt for big sister (who happens to like purple just fine).</div>

David protested that I had taken his picture the day before, but this was his actual first day of class. He had to badger the office to get his schedule changed so that he could take the required PE class. They suggest he put it off until his Sr. year - um, no. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It looks like this will be a challenging year but he likes most of his teachers. By the end of the year he will be ready for the AP Chem exam and the AP US history exam. - Go David!</div>

This is me piggy-backing on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/adriel.henderson">Adriel's beautiful pictures</a>. Despite not having any classes with her best friend, Abigail likes most of them and is excited that she will finally have a challenging math course. She is taking a slightly accelerated class that will have her doing Algebra in 8th grade so she can move straight into geometry as a freshman.</div>

Miriam had a great day, likes her new teacher and is super happy to have her best-buddy Autumn at her table group. Her teacher, Ms. Hopkins, has traveled extensively and Miriam loves all of the stuff from Paris around the room. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This year part of Miriam's homework is to receive and respond to notes from family members and friends. These notes and emails will be placed into a notebook all year-long. This helps to improve her letter writing skills and acts as a keep-sake for her. All of you grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins out there - get writing and help Mim with her homework. Short notes are just fine and asking questions is a great way to give her something to respond about.</div>

<span style="text-align: center;"> I like that the prints are Fall/ Winter without being married to a particular holiday. That way your little one can get a lot of use out of her skirt. The colored balls and branches motifs are really seasonless and can be worn year-round.</span></div>

The kids don't actually start school until Wednesday but Freshman come a day early to learn their way around, and those who help them along are upper classmen called Celtic Starters. David hit the road at 6:15 this morning for a meeting before the class of 2017 arrives. If you can't read his shirt it says "Saving the world, one freshman at a time". </div>

I have recently acquired and started using a rolled him foot for my Kenmore machine. IT is not the easiest thing to use but I discovered something today that is really great and I wanted to share in case it would help others.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Abigail's new dress is circular layers of this thin, gauzy fabric attached to a full lining made from cotton. Because it is sheer and I was going to be cutting the skirt in various circles I knew it was time to learn to use a rolled hem foot. doing this hem by hand would have be days of work, tons of aggravation and it probably would have looked terrible despite the effort.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did practice with this foot and actually made two other dresses with it before I started in on Abigail's. The thin fabric is actually much easier to get through than the thicker cotton I used on the <a href="http://cherrycitykids.etsy.com/">Cherry City Kids</a> dresses but I discovered by accident that it works wonderfully if the edge has been surged first.</div>

First surge the edge that you plan to roll and hem.</div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The surging gives the fabric a natural fold point that makes it roll into the foot much more easily than without. You still have to guide it, but the fabric more naturally wants to roll at that point and it happens to be the right with for the foot!</div>

A couple of weeks ago Miriam attempted to make a doll dress on her own. Doll dresses are tiny and detailed. They require skills like turning fabric while sewing, clipping, backstitching..... It's a lot I promise, too much it turns out for our budding seamstress. Having a 7 yo make a doll dress for her first semi-independent project was not the greatest idea I ever had.<br />
<br />
It finally dawned on me that I got the basics down while making some simple quilts....... Why would I expect more from a 7 yo? Now we are working on a pillow case that her pink blankets will get along with. The blankets (aptly named Pink and Blankie) are left over receiving blankets from her babyhood. They are another story for another day but Mim thinks there is enough pink in this pallet to keep them happy. <span style="font-size: x-small;"> Yes, we personify the blankets. That's just the way we roll around here. </span>I cut the fabric this time so she can work on her stitching skills and I think things will go much better this time.Adriel and Christina Hendersonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01991230341874294040noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15395467.post-28015111368270483722013-08-30T20:35:00.000-07:002013-08-30T20:35:00.154-07:00Wild Cupcakes<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am trying to convince them that I need to get through sewing samples and some things they need for school before I can work on Christmas (although I appreciate them planning ahead).</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I made a custom order for another Etsy seller and the girls thought these 'staches were too funny. <br />
<br />
Jillian makes great baby gear over at <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/littlemonkiez">Little Monkiez</a>. These appliques are destined for hipster bibs. Cute, modern style for little ones.<br />

Today is the Summer Solstice I was suppose to be running a 10K today. It's on the training calendar that hangs next to my closet. "10K Solstice Run". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I'm not running it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't really run since Christmas day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Back in September I started running daily after a ho-hum Summer. Many things contributed and really, I knew better, but basically I did everything wrong and ended up with "foot issues". Here we are 6 months later, ice, rest, stretching, ice, heat, massage, ice....... and they still hurt.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have come to accept a life of yoga and have even started a bit of rowing, but it's not running.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Non-runners don't understand and once I would have thought this sentence insane but - I miss running. Sure the first mile or two sucks, but after that I get in a groove. The rhythm of my feet is steady, and boy are those endorphins good!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My feet will probably recover, and I am still working on it, but stories about foot recovery usually start "It took a whole year...." or "three years ago I hurt my feet...".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In many areas in my life it seems God is teaching me patience. I reminded him that I specifically did NOT ask for patience. I have been very careful to NEVER ask for patience - Mama didn't raise a fool! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And yet, so many things seem to require patience, including my feet. I want to run again. On days like today it is the worst. Not too hot, not too cold, fresh air and good shoes.... all I want is a dirt path under my feet and tunes in my ears. I think it makes me a saner mom and a calmer person over-all. For the moment it is not to be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So for now I will do yoga and learn patience, even if I didn't ask to learn.</div>
