I have some "rugrat" sewing to do. All three boys could use some new sweat pants and when Baby I's brother saw the Ooga Booga outfit, he thought it might be for him, and wanted to try it on. He wears a 4T. Needless to say, that just wouldn't work. However, I do have some more cute, toddler, boy, fabric that would be perfect for him.
The next project for me is going to be Hot Pattern 1090. I found some nice quality charcoal heather knit and closely matching ribbing that will work perfect. Doesn't this look like a comfy, yet stylish dress? I will probably make the elbow-length sleeve version.
On Sunday, we spontaneously stopped by Kanaha Beach Park to enjoy our lunch before heading home. This is a prime location for kite-boarders and wind-surfers and Sunday was no exception. The ocean was rough and the wind was strong. This picture is looking toward Kahului Harbor. Notice the cruise ship? Two of my boys are just soaking in the scene.

I miss Hawaii. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Hawaii!
I miss Hawaii. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Hawaii!
I have never been to Hawaii, but what a lovely view to behold as each day comes!
What a gorgeous scene to be enjoying.
Beautiful! I'm nearly as far from the ocean as you can get in N. Amer. Although, living next to a lake is pretty nice. Smaller, but still nice (:
Thanks for all the beautiful pictures, amazing views. That Hot Patterns you are going to make is one of my favorites.
That does look like a great, comfy casual dress!
That is a beautiful view! I wish I could go to Hawaii one day...
Shannon, I drew your name to win my giveaway. Could you send me your shipping address, perhaps if you leave it as a private message on my pattern review profile, would be the best way to do it.
Congratulations, and thankyou for entering!
Also thankyou for your lovely comment about my bathers!
Wow Hawaii looks beautiful :-))
What beautiful photos! Love the hot patterns dress, i was just watching their You Tube videos on different things you can do with their patterns. Have a great day!
Thanks for the beach pics. They make me want to come back to Hawaii again. I look forward to seeing 1009 come to life.
I've been absent for a few months from sewing and blog reading, and I must say, I have enjoyed catching up with your sewing projects. I love your style, and your sewing is impeccable.
I love the HP dress -- have made it twice recently -- and find it the perfect, throw-on, go-anywhere dress. It does run big so you might want to use the smallest size. The long sleeves are a tad short on me, but I have arms like a monkey. Also, it is very "blousey" so you might want to make adjustments depending on the look you want. Can't wait to see your version.
Great photos!
Oh man, I want to go back so bad!!
