Sew-a-palooza!

It's a Saturday sew-a-palooza!
Just finished this apron:

And these tissue holders:

I have been in LOVE with these sweet little dresses for a while. For some strange reason, JP says he won't wear one if I make it (yes, I'm just kidding!) So I was on a mad hunt to find an adult pattern to make one for myself....and I found it! I found a "regency dress" pattern and figured that I'd shorten the length and insert a waistband with a vintage tea towel for an apron. The apron would be part of the dress! Yeah, I know it's all Sense and Sensibility looking....and yeah, I know I'm not Keira Knightly...but this dress is so feminine and romantic that I just can't help myself!
Now I've got to figure out where all of my kids are...it's just a little TOO quiet around here right now!
