I forgot to mention this in my last post that I would be spending the day with my grandma and hopefully finishing sewing! It's soooooooo awesome :D:D:D:D:D
I now have a beautiful dress in purple that I have made myself!
Please excuse the photos I gave the camera to mum so they're not all in focus but you can see the awesome dress anyway.
I love the cute little bow on the back it covers up the top of the zipper and just looks wonderful.
You can't really see it here but the edge of the hem is done in a decorative stitch with lots of little bows in a row. I couldn't resist it and once I showed grandma the bows neither could she. She was saying no to anything too fancy until she saw them... she loves bows!
I love the whole dress and it was very easy to make and sooo much fun! I will have to make another but not in purple this time. Something with a little pattern in it I like the idea of polka dots. Maybe pink and white polka dots?
My cross stitch project is coming together slowly but I think it will really work.
Happy stitching,
Caitlin
How sweet. Very nicely done. Purple is a cute color too. pink and white polka dots, that would be pretty too.
