There is so much Rain Rain Rain. Which is fine. That's not going to stop me from preparing for all forms of cool, summer, fun-wear. Indeedy.
My poor neglected Gocco was put to the test this weekend. Fabric printing with a Gocco screen and ink can be a little unpredictable. But, other than some design issues and a screen that insisted on clogging in key areas, I'm happy to have these checked off my list. I'm by no means confident in my drawing ability, so I had to get them over with before I spent too much time obsessing (and thus scrapping the whole thing completely). They're for Sam's birthday-- last year we did Nicholas the Bunny shirts, cake, decorations, etc. This year we're all about wheels. I'm not sure how well it's going to translate as far as decorations (any ideas?), but we've got the party favors all wrapped up.
Next, we went the Instant Gratification route with the Laurie's robot iron-on transfers. I've got a pile of these so we're going to be one, big, Robot-Wearing Family this summer. (She's got ninja ones, too, in case you're interested.) The pink shirt is for me. Not Sam. I still want to try the freezer paper method-- which is going to be great for all the one-offs I'm going to try for summer. Maybe some skirts? Oh, I think so.
Now I've got to get back to Easter baskets. We don't have a lick of candy in the house. It's pretty appalling.
