my husband and I love the west wing. we named our cat after one of the characters (chairman percy fitzwallace) and entered our wedding reception to the theme song, to confusion of most of our guests (and delight of a select few).
next month my mom and i are taking nora and etta to disneyland and universal studios. naturally I've decided to sew the girls a few things for the trip. first up: my mom requested some bags for the girls to have in the park.
it's back to school sewing season!
first up is maya who is starting kindergarten this year. after i saw this post from gail over at probably actually i decided to make her a lunch box.
in the summer of 2013 i made maya and etta owl backpacks from the little things to sew book (which is by the good folks at oliver + s.)
over the past four years these backpacks have gotten a lot of use, so i decided to make a lil' man version for the son of a favorite co-worker!
when maya when moved to the big kid room at her daycare my sister and i decided it was time for her first backpack.
vic had very thoughtfully gotten me the little things to sew book by oliver + s a few months earlier and i was dying to try the penguin backpack pattern. but when we found this owls all around print from the nested owls collection we knew a penguin wasn't gonna happen.
