Adventures in Vintage Resales... fka adventures in baby-sewing

I have been awol - absent without leave - for some time. I had lost the desire to work on anything. After I had the flu in January, I had fatigue and aches for weeks. I finally am feeling better. The other thing is I have had a custom onesie and diaper cover to finish and hadn't, been putting it off. Ann of Gorgeous Things addressed sewing for others this week on her blog. If it's something I create and decide to sell, great. Custom things bog me down. I don't know why. Then I can't sew at all, so I am going to be very choosy in the future about taking orders. I am almost finished, which is good. I can give it to her tomorrow at church. Then I am free for my Monday, which is child-free, the oldest 3 in school and the little one at her mothers' day out. Hopefully, my inspiration is returning and I can get back to creating and finishing UFO's. I want to restock the etsy shop - with the things I want to make.

More pictures in the listing for these beauties - see link in right sidebar to the etsy listing. No real sewing, I had a cake to make for the local nursing home's February birthdays and worked contract today.

This pattern is up for sale - Bust 36, late 30's, at a good price in my etsy shop, LadybugDuds. I desperately need to destash what I will not sew, everything priced reasonably to sell. Get it while it's hot! Perfect for those sewing challenges of "through the decades".

Check them out in the little showcase on the right side, there are about 20 listed right now, a variety of sizes and styles.

First a custom made crochet hook organizer ordered at a craft show For the baby's jumper - navy blue baby cord with a lining and trim from cotton, Dena Designs, bought at the LQS, Seams Like Home. I also have covered buttons from a vintage kit and vintage lace on the hem.
