U is for Umbrella

My friend Laura is interested in digital scrapbooking and wants to take a look at what I have done on Lillian's ABC scrapbook.  I pulled it up today and realized I still have a LOT of work to do on it...better fire up the old computer to see if I can recover some old pictures from Lillian's early days. 

Here's one of my favorite pages:

As for all of my other projects...I think I may have overwhelmed myself with crafts and so I'm not really getting anything done :(  I'm trying to make gifts for all of Lillian's friends that are turning one...they aren't too hard, but most of the work has to be done while she's sleeping.  I need to make four of these in the next two weeks.

Of course Halloween is right around the corner as well...so I'm feverishly trying to create a "wiggle worm" costume out of my imagination.  I'm going to sew an outfit with segments, but now I need to decide if I make a green tutu to represent grass (that the worm would be popping out of) or do I extend the outfit to make the tail of the worm?  Not sure which will be more obvious in the end but I think the tutu would be easier to construct than the tail of the worm...if you're reading this, let me know what you would do? 

And some day I will return to the skirt that I bought a pattern for a couple of weeks ago...some day :)
