SEW CUTE!

Every time I make something new

I think...

OKAY...

This is THE cutest thing

I have ever done.

Ever think that way?

Like this is one of your

finest THINGS
(whatever it is)

 so far and you

will never make

anything that cute again?

Well,

As you know,  I dug out

the old

SEWING MACHINE

and went to town.

Look out

DizzyWorld

(as SweetCheeks calls it)

here comes the

Cuteness Contingency!

I always pre-wash and iron

all my materials so there are

no stinking shrinking surprises

after the item is washed for

the first time.

That's the part I like least.

After cutting out the basic pattern,

I go off on my own and trace

around a bowl and a glass

to make my

Mickey Mouse circles.

I back the pieces with interfacing

to stabilize the material

and prevent fraying.

Then, I can applique them

to the front of the dresses.

Then it is time to

SEW-

to add a bit of trim

here and there!

Now I will say that I saw

something similar somewhere,

some time ago.

I can't remember exactly

what it looked like

and

I don't remember where

I saw it

so I can't give any credit.

If you've seen something similar

let me know so I can give

credit where credit is due.

SassyButt SweetCheeks

did NOT WANT to be

a model yesterday

and my flash wouldn't work

and she wouldn't

GO TO THE LIGHT.
(Bj-Sweet Nothings lightened this
picture for me...gosh I love that gal-
if you don't know her you HAVE to go visit)

However, Ria tried SweetCheek's

dress on so I would know how

much material to add to

the pattern.

So,

TA-DAH

#1 SweetCheeks

#2 Ria

#3 I changed the dress up a bit

for Lulu,

being as she is a bit older.

Here they are...

Lined up and ready to go.

The colors are not true here.

The pink is a lovely

light pink with no

orangish cast.

I don't know who is more

excited to go..

Me or the kids.

Oh~Wait~

Did I mention that I am

DRIVING DOWN

with two daughters

and three kids?

Yeah...

 I. Just. Can't. Wait.

Hope you all have a great,

low stress day~
