Completed costumes

Finally Finished!

Today is the day! Yay!! I finally finished my sister and her husbands turtle costumes.  This was quite the experience especially since I have never created any type of clothing.   Hopefully my measurements are correct and I won't have to alter the costume much.  Another obstacle that I found with this project was not having a pattern.  In my quilts I prefer to not use patterns but with this I had to get creative.

 On my fitness to do list this week: 

*Tomorrow I am going to be attending a Mommy and baby yoga class.  I am pretty nervous about this since I have never been to an actual class other than in my own house.  

*I am continuing to try and train for the 5k that I am running in the beginning of November.  Hopefully all this running will help the remaining baby weight melt off so I can hopefully start off the new year on the right track.  

Quilting to do list:

* Finish the baby quilt top so that I can work on the binding this weekend. 

*Finish at least 3 place mats.  

*Cut out material for the spooky wall hanging. 

Hope you all have a great Monday!
