This is unprecidented, writing two posts in one day. The first one from today is below. I had to write again when the very kind Tia let me know of my terrible mistake. You see the Japanese book I told you I used to make the slippers for Lilly was the wrong book. Poor Tai had gone out to buy the book and when she got home she looked and looked but didn't find the slipper pattern in it. I am so sorry and I had to write immediately in attempts to prevent anyone else from buying the wrong book.
Here is the book with the pattern for the slippers I made for Lilly:
Here is where you can pick up the book on Amazon.
ISBN-13: 978-4834727142
You can see the book's version of the slippers below. I love the hand stitches on the straps.
Please forgive me for my error. I will try to double check things from now on. Since I was already scanning for this post I thought why not show a bit more of this great book?
This is a dress I really want to make for little one before summer, or it might make a nice tunic over a turtleneck and tights for winter.
Isn't this a cute purse, with pretty Liberty of London, lace and linen?
This little number I would like in my size. I haven't time for making things for me though, today I finished two pairs of super-fast and simple elastic waist pants for my 9 year old son. Now Lilly is clamoring for some new pants too.
hi, can you tell me the price yoou payed in dollars for shipping the books?
And i can't come up what the price is on the side... can you tell me??? i love the girls book!!! Thanx for sharing the link...

We all make mistakes! What a cute pattern book. I just love those sweet faces! It reminds me of the Debbie Bliss books, she always has such cute kids in them.

Wow amazing book! Unfortunately Japanese craft books scare the heck out of me! Then again patterns did at one point as well, so who knows maybe some day.
