I woke up today and wanted to make something--sew something specifically. I looked through my stash of fabric and then through my drawer of patterns and picked out a simple and easy one. A sun dress for my pretty girl (Kanga).
We started with an ironing lesson. The fabric has been folded up for such a long time and the girls wanted to help! :D
Then I moved on to the laying out the pattern pieces (which made me realize just what I usually sew with my mother--this is the part of sewing I don't enjoy. She's so good at it!!)
So between cooking and encouraging the children to tidy up their rooms. Between answering a lot of questions and asking little hands not to touch Mommy's machine, I completed the first dress.
The finished product.
Modeled by my pretty girl! :D We'll see what tomorrow brings!

Awww..what a sweet little dress and sweet little girls :D I'm a sewing mommy too. Just wanted to say hello.
I love the colors and style of this dress. This reminds me of the days with my mom watching her cut out patterns and helping her pin them. I loved helping her sew. Memories your girls will never forget.
