Pink Dress

Here is one of the many projects I'm always working on.  It was actually very fast!  I used a pattern that I bought years ago but never got around to.  Here is the finished dress... my first completed clothes project. :)  There's supposed to  be ribbon around the waist and flounce but I got lazy...


Elizabeth's dress!

 
Back of the dress


With the bow tied


Inner lining


My first zipper


Crazy looking Elizabeth posing


She turned and said, "Take a picture of the back!"


Practicing her ballet


Twirling to show the fullness of the skirt


She's starting to look chubby..
Next project is Auggie's shirts.. hm.. we'll see if I can get that done before Joshua and Sammy's birthday party next weekend... so many crafts, so little time!

  4. Thanks gals! Elizabeth wore it for church this Sunday and has been wearing it everyday since. :)

    Oh Cindy.. you do NOT want to take a sewing class from me.. I need to TAKE a sewing class. I thought about signing up for an "industrial sewing" class at Harper so that I could take their draping class in the fall.. but I might just take a sewing assessment test and see if I can just skip it and go right into pattern making and draping! But it's a lot of moolah.. so I might have to convince Eddie first. :)
