Savannah's is so excited! Whenever she saw me working on the dress Savannah would say, Savannah's Pirate princess dress!!! I can't wait to show you how cute she looks in it!!! I couldn't have made it with out the help of my mother in law! This was my biggest project ever and my very first zipper!!! Thank you Kim!!!
So, Last week when I was at home most of the time I made some ruffled aprons! I love how they turned out! I just used leftover scraps and they were so easy!
The other day I decided that Savannah needed a fourth of July skirt and, I haven't made her any clothes in a month so, I found some scraps and with no pattern or anything I just winged it! It actually turned out!!! I got her out of her pirate costume and to try it on for a bit.
I love this picture! And this one!!! Savannah trying to stand on one foot! It's so cute! I cut 4X4 inch squares and sewed them together. MAke sue you iron after each step! I hemmed one side, sewed 2 stitches (4 length), Pull and gather carefully the top 2 threads until gathered as much as you want. Pin and sew to a white piece of fabric( 11 inches in length and I just warped it around Savannah to figure out the wight. Fold top over leaving a gap for the elastic, and sew. Sew the ruffle down after you have ironed the seam flap so it will stay down. To measure how much elastic you will need just wrap it tightly around their waist. To make the flowers I just used different length strips of fabric and gathered them just like the ruffle, then sewed the middle.
