    A nightgown seems so challenging. Can’t wait to see what she thinks.

    oh, nice summer sleeping in jammies like that! I live in Portland, Oregon and if we ever got some sunshine, I might think to make something like that. It’s been rainy and cold ~ darn it anyway.

    For some reason, I really liked the Ship Yard Screen when I saw it on the bolt!

    Such gorgeous blue fabrics for the nightie. Dreamy.

    I’d love to try the nightie – it could be my first clothing attempt and I wouldn’t need to stress because no one would ever see it (and my husband surely won’t notice wonky seams!).

    Wow, I knew what the date was, but your half-way announcement kind-of made it sink in! Where has the time gone!? I can’t wait to see the nightie finished.

    I love the nightie project! I made a similar one last year, but it doesn’t fit quite right – I may need to try this one.

    Oh, I’m loving the blue. That’s a color I seem to have lacking in my very, very small stash. Hmm…maybe that’s because I used blue in my last quilt top. Probably! Yep!
