Scripture Bags

It's a tradition to give our kids scriptures when they turn 8. Well, I can't say it's really a tradition as we've only done it once, but we intended to when our 2nd child turned 8, too, but forgot. So, as a late gift, we got her scriptures and I made a case. The 4-year old (at the time) of course wanted a cute scripture bag, too, so I pulled out some of my old scriptures and made her a bag for them for her birthday. I think they turned out cute. I didn't even really measure anything!

Little White Dress

Around the time I made the baptism dress, I also made a dress for our 4 year old. It turned out like this:

She's super skinny so we can fit it over her head, but I should have put in a side zipper or not made the waistband so tight and added a tie in the back (but I ran out of fabric anyway). I may be able to go back in a add a zipper in the side. Perhaps I can go back to the fabric store and buy a little more fabric and change the waistband. Bummer. It looks more like the dress I was baptized in.

Updates from 1999 to Today

I like it! I even put zippers in the pillows.
