But then December. Christmas time is one of my most favorite times of the year, but in the life of a musician, it is also the busiest and most hectic. There were rehearsals for both church and school festivities, not to mention other performances and parties to attend or host.
Once they all came to a grand finale, then whatever spare adrenaline was left took me on a road trip out to Colorado to see my family for 10 days by spending the remaining December days there.
Out of all of the months of school, January tends to be the quietest. A chord struck to organize the living room closet this week, but I didn’t get very far when I came across my sewing machine, fabrics, and patterns staring me in the face. They were the first to pull out if the closet, and before I knew it, the machine was in a rhythm of sewing again.
This time I attempted to recreate Pleasant Company’s Felicity’s birthday dress and pinner apron. The actual dress is simply made from some rose cotton found at Joann Fabrics, but the apron fabric; which is nearly an identical copy to the dolls, was a little harder to find and a little pricey to purchase. But it was worth it, I think.
More pictures of the dress can be found by visiting my Etsy shop, PeasantCottage.
