Matching Madras

So I don't know if you guys saw this or not but the Straight Stitches' facebook page has over 100 likes! Isn't that totally awesome?!?!? I think so.

So I want to do a giveaway but I don't know what to giveaway so there's a poll up there....on top of this post. Go vote for what you want to be given away :)

So now onto the outfits I made for a friend's babies. :) Ok, well only one of them is a baby. She's 10 days older than H, but the other baby is 3. That still counts as a baby right? So here's the sneak peak I showed on the facebook page last week.

How stinkin' adorable is that? Before I get to the rest of the pictures, I used Simplicity 2907.

Such a simple pattern! Good thing too, because H has the same pair of shorts coming for Easter. Shhh - don't tell. :)

So here are the rest of the pictures. :)
 I had wanted to add lace to the shirt dress, but I did not have any, so the loop ribbon was a quick and dirty substitute. I don't want to gloat, but look at how well that plaid is matched up :)
 Here are the shorts for the big man! I did not have enough fabric for the pockets, but at least I got the cargo pocket in there! Look how well those lines are matched up!
The pattern cost $1, and I plan on getting at least 3 pieces of clothes from it, and the fabric cost $2 - so for $3 I got adorable shorts and dress for the babies. Love! I can't wait to tackle my kid's outfits for Easter. :) I should probably get started.

Have a great day guys!
