    Talking Alexandra's dress...

    Here is what I have been working on yesterday and today. I have to get some hook and eyes for the back, but other than that it is done.

    I am going to be doing a few tutorials using this dress, as soon as I get them typed up, I'll be posting them.

    Thanks Carolyn. The fabric is out of my stash. lol It is a light seersucker with baby blue and pink flowers, and I added a pink collar.

    I only have big hangers here and they distorted the sleeves, so I went out and stole the hanger out of my clothespin bag!

    Thank girls, it was fun sewing for a little one again. I love making little girly/frilly clothes. lol I did forget how little they were though, it's kind of like making doll clothes.
