I need to invest in

a saftey pin.

Every week I have 1 hour and 45 minutes to myself. Wednesday mornings Hazel's mom takes both my girls so I can clean the house, run errands, etc... Some days after I drop them off, I can't bring myself to face the kitchen or the grocery store. This morning I used my free time to make these:

I made them out of Hazel's mom's old shirt she was taking to Goodwill. Knits are not the easiest to work with, but it was a bit easier than the last pair of pants I made for Lydia:


These were made from a wool sweater I found at Goodwill a few months ago.
The saftey pin would have made putting the elastic in much easier. I ended up using a bobby pin to pull it through.
I can't wait to show Margo!
