Ta Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (only with photos of it COMPLETE on Boo!)

Oh my goodness... oh my goodness (quote from Annie)!!! I am really thrilled with how these beautiful ruffle pants for BooBooBear turned out! She tried them on (after I had to do some adjusting... they were a bit long for her...she's 8 and I made the size 10...) and I am just in love! Now don't get me wrong... there are mistakes... oh yeah MANY mistakes I had to fix... - but I learned with each one of them and hope to only get better!!!

I REALLY want a pair all to myself... I am RUFFLE CRAZY now!! (LOVE my ruffle foot for my sewing machine... truly I do - it's a match made in heaven!!!)!!!
OK without further ado... Here is Boo in her new owl... ruffle... Rosie Posie (by PinkFig - love her! Thank you so much Chelsea!) pants!!

Close up of the ruffles (excuse the cord - it was hard getting her off her PC game!)

THERE SHE IS! WOW looking STUNNING! (and the pants are so cute too!!)

Don't you just love how she poses for her Rosie Posie ruffle pant photo?

"Now a sitting photo Momma!"
 And there ya go...I am so happy with how they came out! I am very proud of myself! My first pair of pants ever!! But most of all... BooBooBear is happy as can be - and that is all that matters!!!

TA DAaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

I finally finished... I wanted to get these pants done sooner... but the art show and cleaning and well... just life got in the way! But they are done now... I am so thrilled with how they turned out. I cannot wait to try them on BooBooBear... She will L. O. V. E., love them! I will had to do a few adjustments as they will be a bit long on her. The ruffles are just DARLIN'!! (If I do say so myself...)... Chelsea of PinkFig... you've outdone yourself on this pattern!!! Thank you for ALLLL your help!!!

I love them so much I want to make MY OWN pair!!!! I just have to find a pair of pants of mine that I can take apart and try to use!!!

Ok... here's how they look so far... I have to really get my super cute model to show you how they REALLY look... but for now... since I cannot wait... Take a look...
Working on the last (fourth) ruffle...

Almost done... 2nd leg...

Last seam...and...

TAaaaaaaaaaaaaa DAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Up close and personal... RUFFLES galore!!!
I am pretty darn proud of myself... not too shabby. (I won't tell you that there were a few things I would change on how I did them...) I am trying to get better about certain things... but I am getting there!

LOVED working on these pants... CANNOT wait to see lil' Boo in them!!! Will add photos of her in them tomorrow... I just couldn't wait to post...

Ooooo I want this quilt so badly...

One of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE pattern designers is Chelsea... from PINKFIG... I purchased her two shirt patterns (among a bunch of others) - and LOVED how easy they were to make... and let me tell you - I had basic knowledge from "Home Ec" and my mom and grandmother... but I needed a new creative outlet - some fun, funky - not the 70's version of patterns for my girls... AND BOOM! I fell in love with PINK FIG!!!

She has a lovely quilt that she is doing a Holiday giveaway on her blog... with her new line of fabric (which I SOOOO soooo sooo sooo soooo soooo need - even though I have so much fabric...). I am totally addicted to beautiful fabric and her line IS gorgeous!!! Check out this lovely quilt...

Look at that ADORABLE fabric!? HEAVENLY!


Ooooo I just want it so badly...I NEVERrrrrrrrrrr win these blog giveaways... but I am just really hoping and praying that this one will be won by yours truly... OH I CAN HOPE!!! It would be so nice to end this tragic year with something wonderful...

I have been working on my latest PinkFig pattern...The Rosie Posie Ruffle Pants... for my BooBooBear! I cannot wait till these are complete!! THEY ARE SO CUTE!

Check out Chelsea's blog (here) and her Holiday giveaway... but just remember... I NEED TO WIN!!!
Fingers and Toes crossed!!!
