So Much That We Share

There is just one moon

and one Golden Sun

And this set has something 

for everyone

It was a long time coming - and I'm not going to lie, there may have been some laughter AND some near-tears along the way, but I made it to the end! Three outfits, lovingly handcrafted for my brother's kids. 

Two classic and timeless woven dresses, and a dapper little romper that will be soft, flexible, and let little brother match his sisters without sacrificing comfort. Hats off to a fabric host that can manage to color match this well across fabric bases, by the way.

I packed these beauties up and sent them to their recipients early this August, along with a Jojo Dress my daughter had outgrown. I insured the package for $500, because I swore if something happened to it, I was paying *someone else* to make them again.

The day after they arrived, my SIL texted me this beautiful photo of my nieces and nephew all dressed in their matching outfits - I breathed a HEAVY sigh of relief that everything fits. And then admired both my handiwork, and the general cuteness of my Brother and SIL's kids.

So what did everyone get? Well, my nieces & nephew got their dresses and romper, and my SIL got a fun family set for play and special occasions. My brother got a job (replacing Kam snaps as needed), and a few days after the package arrived, *I* got a really touching and heartfelt "Thank You" note from my SIL.

In the end, sharing in my SIL's joy, and seeing the joy on the kids' faces made it all worthwhile.
