It's been such a long time since I sewed... but the 6 year old wanted a new dress and what could I say?
It was kind of fun. I didn't use a pattern (which if you look closely - or even not so closely - you can tell). I've had that off-set pocket thought in my sketchbook for awhile now. I might make another one with long sleeves and a hopefully more successful neck (there is a reason she is wearing that scarf!). Or I might not.
She's really happy to be posing for the camera instead of eating her english muffins before school.
Oh so sweet. How my daughter loves pockets! Did you mention what the fabric is? Hmmm, I think it time to check out my sewing machine again. It has laid quiet too long.
ReplyDeleteI love this dress - you should make a pattern to sell it. beautiful!
ReplyDeletethose pictures are so stinking cute!
ReplyDeleteHmm... I kind of want that dress for me!
ReplyDeleteIt's very cute, and you're fortunate to have such an expressive model.
ReplyDeleteOh my, the look on that face! So cute!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love that you had her wear a scarf to hide a mistake. I just may have to try that trick sometime!
ReplyDeleteWow!!! That dress is totally very stunning. She looks so pretty wearing that dress. Love it!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute dress! She looks legless in that last pic. LOVE this! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of an off-set pocket. I think it embodies the idea that imperfection can be beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove that girls expressions and her drawings and of course the fabric and new dress, what a lucky girlie!
ReplyDeleteThe dress, and your daughter, are both ADORABLE!!!
