Dots Dots and More Dots

Been working on a smocked Bishop for Roxy. Just about finished. Like the buttons and snaps.
The fabric is a white cotton lawn with pink, purple, blue and green dots. The smocking is done in
purple.
I really like this fabric for smocking.
I used Maggiesmocks instructions for the placket and it work great.
Planning on doing a pair of bloomers to go with it.

Pick out the fabric for my Raggedy Ann quilt sew along. I know I'm alittle late. But had to do taxes first.
Even tho I'd much rather been sewing.

For some reason or the other, I've always been one that had all these plans. Get started on them and if I was not careful would get distracted.
Thought I'd out grow it but I have not.
Right now on my sewing table ready to go is:
Sun Bonnet Sue Baby quilt
Skirt
Burp cloths
Raggedy Ann doll
and
Raggedy Ann quilt alomg.

Not to mention all the other things I would love to get finished before the Holidays.
Like a few more quilts.

Oh well, I love the hunt.
Hunt for the perfect pattern
Hunt for the perfect design.
Hunt for the perfect fabric.
So on and so on.

Seems like I get consumed with ideals. And just can't find the time to finish.
Gotta work on that.
