Happy pre Halloween!

I spent the morning sewing! Finally!  but not for me.
I made a pair of pajamas in flannel to be part of a jedi knight costume for my dgs.

It turned out pretty cute.   I didn't get to see him in it as my ds delivered it for me...although he waited until 9pm.  So I'm sure my boy went to bed thinking Grandma failed him!  This made me very sad.  Hopefully it fits him!

Tomorrow I need to finish up the lining in a coat for a friend of mine.  
Friday I am cutting out that dress I've been talking about for the past two months.  I think my mojo is finally back.

I'm really excited.  My twin brother provided points so my son and I can fly back to KC for Thanksgiving!  I haven't been back since the summer after my mom passed away in 2007.   I really miss my siblings.  I've got a great niece I've not yet met...she's almost 2!  She's going to be a big sister in Feb to a little brother.   Then I have a niece that is due the week of Thanksgiving, so hopefully she'll be born while I'm there.  That would be cool.

I finished the afghan for my sister.  I just have to weave the ends  in.  

Now it is time to start planning for Christmas.   I have no idea what I'm going to do this year.  It won't be a lot as I have no money, no time, and no idea of what to make!

My gd is learning to sew.  I think I'm going to either put together a sewing box with fabric and patterns, or give her a gift card and she can do it herself.    I'd like to make everyone pj's.  Not sure they'd want them though........

I need to make me some pj's too!

Well, that's it for today.   Headed to bed with my notebook to make my lists.  Good night.
