Another ruffle shirt - completed!

I finsished this tonight and couldn't even wait to post it until tomorrow when I could do a proper photo shoot with natural light!

This is my favorite part of the fabric, it looks like a little wave of flowers and hearts!


After I finished sewing the straps I needed to attach them to the shirt but I couldn't find it. I looked on the floor, under everything I had on the table, in the family room and just couldn't find it, so I stood up to get a better look and found it right behind me on Madelyn! I had put it on to check strap length and forgotten to take it off. She was just playing happily, not questioning why mommy had put some weird shirt over her nightgown.

One strap on, checking for placement...and apparently it's good for running. Like how my family room looks after I spend time at the sewing machine?
Finished product! This one is a shirt so it's supposed to be short and since we weren't doing a proper photo shoot I saw no need for pants. :)

I promise fun pictures tomorrow that include something on the bottom. :)

From like to LOVE

In a previous post, I claimed to have finished a dress for Madelyn as modeled by Pooh Booh. After thinking about it and looking at it more and feeling like it resembled a ruffley pillowcase, I made a few changes and now I am in love! A little pleated ruffle at the bottom and some cutie patootie flower buttons and be still my heart. Now this really is a Valentine dress because I love it so much.
