T-shirt Refashions

My friend has inspired me to refashion some of my old t-shirt that I didn't really wear.
These two shirts needed some spice, so this is what I did:

I was inspired by this picture:
I cut off the long sleeves and used the fabric to make the flowers. I add some tool fabric in between for texture, and secured the flower to the shirt with a bead in the middle of each flower.
This is in the middle of the process after I had pinned the flowers in place.


Then I was at the mall and saw this Ruffle Camisole,
so I sewed on some gathered ribbon onto this shirt.

I'm deciding between these two for my next project:
Being creative is so energizing!

Family Sledding Day

On the holiday Monday in January we went up to the mountains to sled. It was the best day of weather! It was above freezing, sunny, and no wind. The kids didn't complain and the day lasted much longer than I had anticipated. They loved sledding. All the boys are dare devils. They have no fear! We had an awesome time.
CLARK
Clark loved his first experience. He laughed a smiled every time. He did require a lift up which was a lot of exercise for mom and dad.


GABE
At first he was only body sliding and eating snow, but when he decided to start sledding he was face first bombing the hill over and over.


Luke
screams and laughs the whole way down.

It got to warm for a coat.

Sledding with his cousin.
