Progress!

I've lost a total of 10 pounds now in approximately the last 2 months.  YAY!  I am now back to what I weighed before I got pregnant with Claire.  Unfortunately, that's not as awesome as it may sound.  I'm weird.  I weighed less each time I got pregnant.  5 pounds less than this when I got pregnant with Scott and almost 10 pounds less than this when I got pregnant with Kate.


But here is another sewing project that's been helping distract me:



This sweater used to be a V-neck pullover, but I almost never wore it because a) I live in Texas and I hardly ever need a sweater,  b) it fit a bit short for my taste, and c) the few times I do want a sweater, I rarely want one I have to pull on and off over my head.

So, inspired by some pins I saw on Pinterest, I turned it into a cardigan, and now I LOVE it!  I have the exact same sweater in a dark charcoal gray, so stay tuned because it's definitely getting chopped too!

    Love the new cardigan. For Halloween, I was on the sewing diet. It works great! I was too busy to be hungry.
