Ruffles and Stuff!!

I thought I would confuse some folks by putting a cute little pink dress at the top of my post.  YES I am having a boy.  And NO I have yet to make him anything....except I think a few burp cloths a couple months ago maybe.  BUT I am REALLY going to miss ruffles and stuff .....and pink.....and butterflys.....and dresses.  SOOOO I decided to get it out of my system and off of my to-do list.  PLUS (drum-roll please) SANTA BROUGHT ME THIS.....
I know what you are thinking....was she a good enough girl to deserve that???? NOPE, but he brought it anyways and I am not going to complain.  I LOVE IT!!!  I have done very little except watch the instructional DVD about 10 times and sew on a bunch of scraps, but I LOVE IT!!!  Anyway....enough about my love life.  I decided to start off with knits because they are the little buggers that give me such a hard time. 
SOOOOO I used MY OWN TUTORIAL from days past (which by the way was my MOST POPULAR TUTORIAL OF 2010) and made a little onesie dress and ruffle butt-cover for my new BFF Rilee McKenna who was born a couple days before Christmas.  She is my new favorite RED HEAD:)  I am not sure about my friends and their ability to produce red heads, but there are sure a lot of them in my life these days..ha ha!!!
My new serger (yet to be named) did not help with my inability to sew ruffles on straight, but I still am in love with this little ruffle butt....I cannot wait to see it all filled up with a little teeny tiny diaper bum....CUTE!!!
I broke out a 5 pack of onesies, and only used up this one, so watch out because I am PRETTY sure there are a few more ruffley pink projects in my future.  AND THEN I PROMISE I WILL MAKE SOMETHING BLUE FOR MY LITTLE BOY....PINKIE SWEAR!!!
