indyanna's first day of school dress

2008-08-20 pleated dress

so my camera is broken.........so i'm taking pics with my webcam on my laptop. really NOT top quality photos as you'll see. but, if i don't snap a pic now i'll forget to do it later and then the moment will be gone forever!

so without anymore excuses, here's a little pleated dress i made for indyanna. it's made out of a sari type material. very silky. and unfortunately, you can't see it well but the pink fades to purple at the bottom of the skirt. i love it. the pleats don't seem to hold well though. no amount of ironing is helping that. i've even sewn the pleats down at the bottom. oh well.

2008-08-15 boss jumper & nan dress

not pictured is a pair of boxers for bray. he would be mortified if i posted them. he'll prolly be mortified that i even mentioned it.

bossy jumper--which is to short in the stride so it's now the tj jumper


nanny's new dress. front and back

2008-07-29 getting ready for halloween

i made this cute top today. it is fully lined with black satin. this was my "learning" top. as you can see i cut the front piece upside down. *sigh* 'tis ok though. i think it's still cute enough for indyanna to wear. i also didn't do the shoulder seams correctly. again, 'tis ok. it still turned out cute enough to wear!

2008-07-26 the anna wrap dress

first european pattern i've ever attempted. the instructions were kinda confusing and made me read out loud and say hu? lots of times but i finally got it! actually now that i have made one and figured it out i can say that it will be super easy to make more! like you can make one in under 2 hours.



the back is a little wrinkled but that's what a carseat does for you! safety first!
