Well, I've had fun making of few ofthose bunnies, a kitten, and currently have in the works -- bunny in pink chenille & bunny in yellow minky dot. For some reason I don't have any yellow satin around here!
Anyway, a couple years ago (before the economy went south) my friend Tonya and I had a plan to make and sell little girls boutique clothing. I love to sew -- and she is great at everything else. But things happened, a layoff, a move back to her hometown far far away and a new life, a new job, and 2 kids (6 & 8) that are involved .... need I say more mothers out there? I digress, we were on track at one point and I got all the clothes that I had made out to her so she could put them on our little model and work the technology/inventory end of things. She finally (love you T) got about 1/2 of my dresses back to me ..... so today I'm ironing, taking pictures, checking sizes, tagging, and pricing .... have I ever said that I just want to sew? Would love to have a partner in crime!
Miss you ladies of USAT!
I finally finished this little dress. I've been working on it for awhile, played with options. Can be dressed up and down easily. I like the pattern, construction is pretty easy. Next one I make will have contrasting fabrics. Just wanted to see the design potential. So this one's for Leila this year, I can manage to get a ruffle or small contrast on her clothes (love you chica) -- chica does not like over the top, girly girl stuff for the girls. Which one if your favorite look?
Pics to come.
Honey
So glad to see your dreams are moving right along! We miss you to, B :)
ReplyDeleteB, is that your sewing room in the background? It's awesome!
ReplyDeletei like the first one for leila, but you can use a contrasting fabric for the pocket if you want. ;) i don't understand the second one...
