the latest installment of "crap I've made"

It was a busy sewing Saturday for our house this week. Michael was out of town this weekend, so my friend Leisa and I took advantage of naptime and finally sewed new dresses (matching : ) for our daughters. We had all of the pieces already cut out, but we did all of the sewing (except the very first step) all in one day, in one naptime.

Ian even got some sewing done for him too yesterday. Every 10 month old needs a bowtie, right?
In the end, Leah's dress turned out to be so small it wouldn't even fit over her head, so I remade it late last night (the risk of sewing during naptime). It was even easier the second time. I used my serger on all of the inside seams and I love how it looks on the inside. So neat. It's the little things in life, isn't it?

  2. Leah and Liam are so big now! And as cute as ever. That dress is so cute, definitely not crap! I wish I had the talent and patience to sew.
