Twirly and Whirly

So pretty!
 I have really wanted to learn how to sew clothing for a long time. My sis-in-law Lynette over at Get Your
Craft On is AWESOME! She has done all kinds of cool clothes for her kids and other fun crafty things. I've just convinced myself that I don't have time, or I don't know what to do, or patterns confuse me ;). But I saw this tutorial and figured I could seriously make that! Of course I have the most beautiful little model so that helps too! Of course, having just 1 girl in the middle of 4 boys gives me the responsibility to sew everything girly and really encourage her femininity! (Hey whatever works right?) So here are the 2 t-shirt dresses I've made for her so far. Total cost per dress is less than $8...not too bad, and I was able to make her something modest and super cute!

of course you need a matching headband






Gavin has to get in on it too! :)

I have decided that I want to document all of my creations somewhere and there is no better place than a blog! So here we go. I am going to try to organize stuff, but if you follow my sense of organization and it makes sense to you...I'm sorry. :) I hope you enjoy looking at my stuff cause I really like showing anyone that will listen! :)
