so, it only took me three days to make. *sigh* it's an 'easy' pattern, but i am SUCH a beginner that it takes me so long. i messed up the neckline at least three times. ha! but it turned out really cute. it's similar to the dress and hat i made last year (sorry, i can't even look up when i posted about it....) you can see it's slightly too big. i made a size 3. the fabric is SO CUTE, don't you think? very summery. i can hardly wait for warmer weather!
when i had sasha stand up against the wall for photos, tommy had to get in on the act:
(as you can see, he is still on his pajamas kick!)
it didn't rain much today, so we did go do what yoshi wanted to. if i have time later tonight, i'll write about it. until then, a teaser of my next sewing project....

Ooo how sweet! That is such a cute outfit!
I would use beginner and sew in the same sentence as tea towel not cute little dress for daughter. You're a star!
I admire your patience. If I had screwed up a piece, I would have simply thrown it away and bought something better at the store! haha
A lovely outfit. You should feel proud. You also have beautiful models there, as well.
You are definitely NOT a beginner! That outfit is totally something I would have expected to find in a dept. store! Too cute, and perfect for St. Paddy's Day!
seriously, this is not a difficult thing to make. the top is just one piece and you sew the bias tape to the edges. no hemming involved!! as long as you mark the fabric correctly, the tabs and buttons are really easy, too.
the pants had a little bit of hemming, but nothing too difficult.
the problem i had was getting the bias tape attached to the fabric. i kept missing it in places!!
I think it looks just lovely.... did you make the one below as well?
i love the colors in that quilt block!!!
can't wait to see more....
that little girl in that cute little outfit isn't bad, either.
i hope that you get totally hooked on quilting...mwahahahaha
