Dress Making

Posted on March 11, 2012March 5, 2012 by Andi

My sister-in-law, Paige (and her mom) is fabulous at sewing. Paige came across a dress pattern online that I saw a long time ago, but was too nervous to try on my own. Well, she made one and inspired me to make one for myself. Well, not for me…but for Maddie.

The website where I got the instructions and the pattern is HERE. You can see more pictures and get all the instructions and a pattern from there.

Paige got a tool to add snaps to the dresses. So I went and bought one of those. It worked great. Now this may be the cutest little dress, but let me tell you, I almost gave up when I was making it. I was so frustrated because I used quarter flats and didn’t think my cutting through well enough and messed up the first two that I cut. I need to go back to the fabric store and make up for my mistakes. But I finally managed to get this one to turn out and lo and behold….it’s adorable! I just love the funny little cats on the material!

Have you tackled any projects lately that started out poorly and ended up working out in the end?
