Something for Me!

I had a little bit of a lull in my sewing a few weeks ago. I had finished all that I could do for the wedding at the moment and I was waiting for the fabric Kendyl was sending me to start on some new things. So, I decided to make something for me. I had seen this fabric when I was shopping for fabric for Macy's clothes. Something about it spoke to me. And every time I went to JoAnn's I would look at it, but I just couldn't decide what to do with it. Then I found this dress pattern. It's a really cute dress and it has some fun details so I bought the fabric and started sewing. It took me about two days to finish the dress. The total cost for fabric and supplies was about $10. 10 bucks and I got a really cute new dress. I have actually worn it already. It fits really cute. I want to make another one in a different fabric because I like it so much. I think I am going to make a top using the same pattern. I think it would be cute. Next time I wear it I will get my mom to take a picture of me so you guys can see it on.

Fun Summer Dresses

These dresses are really easy to make. For the little girls all you have to do is sew the seam in the back because they come hemmed and add some ribbons for straps. For the womens you have to sew the seam in the back and hem them. I made one of these for Kendyl a few years ago and she loves it so she asked me to make her another one. She bought the fabric in Arkansas and mailed it to me. She also bought the fabric for Melayna's dress.

Cheryl also sent me some fabric to make dresses for Melayna. She had found the cute ballerina fabric and thought it would be perfect for Melyna to wear over her leotard to dance class. It's adorable and the ribbon she picked out for both dresses is really cute!
