Co-op

I love doing Co-op with some gals from our ward. It is this genius concept where we all take a shift throughout the weekdays either morning or afternoon and then anyone doing co-op can bring their kids to be watched and pay you tickets for doing so. It works wonderfully and has brought me lots of peace in my life so I'm not always bringing my kids places they don't want to be at. Its a win-win because then my kids are off at friends houses whom they love to play with. I have the tuesday afternoon shift. These are the kids who were here yesterday. Two had already gone home before I snatched a photo.
While Aliyah was here I used her as a model for my latest "pillow case" pattern creation. Marlina picked out these fabrics for Hailey while she was here so I wanted to make sure it would fit properly. Isn't Aliyah adorable? I can't wait to see Hailey girl in it too:]

I made this one a little longer so it can be worn with jeans or tights. Its almost dress length, but not quite.

co-op is great!! Cute pillow case dress, I was searching for some on Etsy today, there is some cute ones to buy, I'm not near as talented or as patient as you! Oh, and cute little model!

so, what are the tickets for the co op, I'm not sure I quite understand how all that works? I love your new picture on your blog, the wreath with the C-genius idea! So classy, LOVE it!

and your pillowcase dress, oh my goodness, so cute. I'll have to get together with you someday and have you teach me how to make one for Sabrina.
