uhm....Stuff from the sale table at Jo-Anns? It's really thick- much thicker than I imagined. The whole dress probably weighs about 2 pounds...which considering it is a toddler dress- is pretty amazing. I made it a bit big- there is about 4 inches bound up in that ruffle towards the bottom, so I can let it out as she grows. It might be too heavy for much longer...perhaps it will be a fall dress.
When my twin girls were little I would sew little dresses for them all the time. Doesn't it feel good to see Nora running around in one of her mommy's creations? Sewing is so therapeutic for me. Keep sewing, kiddo! Hugs, Susan

So cute! She is going to look adorable in it, especially as it was made by mommy! You did a great job. Thanks for sharing and please post a pic when she wears it. Take care, Marcy

It's never too late to be what you might have been.
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
Very Beautiful!!Reminds me of my sewing days for my children. Enjoy this time.
