My first dress...
I have been quite obsessed with my sewing machine lately. My mom laughs because everytime she calls I am sewing --- it is an obsession I tell you!
Well today I made a dress for alyson -- this os not like the simple one I told you about earlier this week -- but I actually followed a pattern (sort of) - I downloaded the directions and followed using pictures - I LOVE that! This is what I came up with (pardon Alysons' messy hair and 'over it " attitude! LOL! I MADE her take a picture!
it is a bit big -- but I can alter the next one - because yes, I do have more material!!
I also 'fixed' a top that I ordered to match her adorable skirt. I just was not happy with what it looked like --- so I decided to make it up as I went and added a little care bear applique onto the tank and some ruffles (and yes I know they are not perfect) but hey I just started using the machine last week! LOL!
ok all week we were waiting for the party supplies to arrive and especially the lollipops I ordered. I ordered the big rainbow ones - and when I opened the box I saw blue -- blue lollipops -- I was miffed --I emailed the company and of course it is too late to send out others -- but they are trying to figure something out.
But I made the best of it and Alyson and I made these.(Oh and she didn't mind that they were blue - she was just more concerned what they tasted like - LOL)
alrighty --- here is a bit more of what I have made with the New My Little Shoebox 'Little Ladies' line ----
okie dokie -- I will be back with birthday pictures - and some cards I made using Shimmerz!!
