What can you accomplish in a weekend?

Apparently, a LOT! I had a very busy weekend baking, sewing, and getting ready for Christmas! I was able to sew diapers, babylegs, do a ton of baking, and still manage a toddler at the same time!

Every year, I bake cookies to give out for Christmas. Since they just don't taste the same when they're re-baked and frozen, I always bake them within a couple days of Christmas. This year, it wound up being over 40 dozen cookies when all was said and done! Snickerdoodles, chocolate chip, tiger stripe, oatmeal raisin, chocolate peppermint pinwheels, and more! YUMM! If only I'd remembered to take pics after they were all done!

I wasn't able to finish the Piggle hat I was making for my sister, but I did get her tutu made! It was a very quick, easy and inexpensive project! After cutting the tulle to the right sized strips, it took no more than 15 minutes to put the whole thing together! A very simple project, and she loved it!



Another quick and easy project was some new wintery faux-Babylegs for Kaiden. Take some knee-highs, cut off the toe, add a cuff, and presto! All in all, I don't think it took any more than 45 minutes to do all 3 pair.


Last but not least, I made Kaiden some Christmas diapers! They're from my own pattern, and fit great! They are made with a cotton woven outer and internal hemp soaker. The blue and black diapers have velour inners, while the green snowflake diaper has a microfleece inner.
