Because We HAVE To Have Dresses Now

I LOVE this fabric. Talk about an easy sew! The two on the left are skirts for the Princess and the two on the right are dresses for Spunky...seeing as how Spunky is boycotting pants and skirts and shirts.

Very cute. I am sewing more these days but I have not dared make any clothes. I am just making curtains, blankets, pillows and that kind of stuff. If my mom was closer I think I would try to sew more. You did a good job on the dresses and skirts.

Yes, I love this fabric. It is the easiest thing to sew. I made some of these skirts and dresses for my girls last year. CUTE & SIMPLE.

These are so cute. I never thought about using this fabric for just a skirt. Where did you get your fabric? I might have to find some to make the girl's easter dresses this year.

I bought the two fabrics on the outside at Wal-Mart...your FAVORITE place Chel ;)...last summer. The two middle ones I purchased at Hancock Fabrics. The fabric is kind of pricey. $15 something a yard, but the lady who cut it for me was a generous cutter and I asked her for 22 inches of each and she gave me 25. Nice. So it didn't come out near as much as I thought it would. The fabric is MUCH cheaper at Wal-Mart, but not near as cute...at least in my opinion. My kids don't care though.

Chel, I love that you are copying me. That is what friends do. You just have to promise that you will post pictures when you are done.

You should sell these! I want to learn how to sew...I even have a sewing machine, just no time to learn!! It's on my list of things to do when we get our house done. (We break ground in May/June) ... until then, I do believe you should sell me some of these ADORABLE dresses! :) hehehe

Have you ever looked at selling on etsy.com or even on your blog, you get plenty of hits anywho, would love to take pics of your little girls especially in these adorable dresses! I would love to get my chunker one of these! But I have a curse....the inability to sew :(
