This was one of those, "I have such a great idea in my head, but how do I actually make it?" dresses. I pretty much just made it up. However, that did lead to a variety of complications. At one point I was just going to give up and make her a dress from a pattern. But I told my ingenious mom about it and she told me how I could fix it. She is amazing! So here it is - Lena's dress for my brother's wedding in March.
Lena loves it!
Well, mostly she loves pulling it up, playing with it and putting it in her mouth.
So precious! I can't believe how much she looks like Landon. And your sewing skills are incredible.

ReplyDeleteDo you give sewing lessons? I am staring at my sewing machine, trying to work up enough motivation to just do Nathan's mending. What a lucky princess.
