one more random thing
December 10th, 2009
my friend trish (thanks) gave me this really cute fabric and i thought i would make a dress for lily. i think it turned out pretty cute. i used one of my patterns that is usually a tank dress and added a sleeve pattern from a different dress. lily wasn't very happy with me when i took these pictures because she had to go to school while me and the boys were going to hang out with my mom, thus the no smiling in the picture. this was the happiest i could get her to look, at least she wasn't crying in this one. i know the fabric is a bit 70's with the huge flower print but i thought it worked.


i thought the back was really cute with the random yellow button i happened to have laying around.


I love this Jana! I have been trying out some sewing too for the first time ever and it’s pretty fun! I would love to be able to make something like this. Can you please move to Austin so we can be sewing buddies??!! The house across the street is for sale!
i have a lot of fun sewing and making things like this. unfortunately for the boys, girls clothes are a lot more fun to make. steven just bought me a serger for christmas and i can’t wait to figure out how to use it better because it finishes clothes off so much better. i am not sure if we will ever move there but hopefully we can come and visit sometime in the near future. keep up with the sewing, it just takes a lot of practice. try making pajama bottoms, that helped me a lot.
