Its a strange thing seeing your hands as mom hands. Strong, beautiful hands to bring comfort to a tiny person. I savour the quiet ease in which she settles into my lap. There’s no where else she’d rather be. In fact she’s been waiting all day to be right here.

The heart outside my body looking cute af. I’ve come a long way since I taught myself to sew. The same jacket I made a year ago took me 8x longer and the finish is inferior. So proud of this one! Floral French Terry from @harrowlanetextileco. Available for preorder now.

The doll was scaring my husband and mom so I made her a new outfit last night. This turned into an outfit for the boss as well. Most of it self drafted or pattern mashed. We’ll wear it out today on our outing with the grand parents. :) #mommade #diy #sewistsofinstagram #brindilleandtwig #toddlerfashion
