Curses!

This is what I was thinking while sewing the baby booties for Dear Son's baptism outfit tonight.  The first bits weren't bad . . .

but then we got to the actual shoe construction and, well . . . doesn't this look awkward??? 
(There's a lot of material stuffed in the middle of that fabric sandwich.)

And then - oops! 

But no, wait, aha!

And then you have to do it twice!  (Two shoes, remember?)

Finally, all finished. 

Now I have the romper, Sis' fleece blanket, and my skirt to go before Thursday.  And lots of house still to clean and cookout to plan . . .
