Dresses for girls

I have these beautiful fabric in my stash for a year but never have an idea on using it.Then one day my first daughter asking me if she can have a dress from one of these fabric.
Since I haven't make a new pattern for her,I'm using the old pattern that I used before on my dresses for little angels but making another different style for the skirt.

Record I make

I broke my own record.I make 2 laptop soft cases the use the same fabric but in different size and a skirt just in one day.Making the soft cases a little bit tricky but the skirt is very easy! Just making a rectangle with the length 1,8 x your waist and the wide as you want it plus the 2 cm extra for the rubber (if you use 2 cm rubber band) and 1 cm seam.stitch the top seam with the lining,stitch the bottom of the lining and the main fabric add the rubber band and voila...it's done.

Dresses for little angels

I am making these dress from some leftover fabric of my chic dress.It's enough for my 2 girls....!!!! Have the idea from mesewcrazy's jackie O dress tutorial,but I made my own pattern for the top because of my children's sizes that is sooo small...and have some changes in the making. Here is the link for mesewcrazy's tutorial http://www.mesewcrazy.com/2011/02/oh-jackie-dress-tutorial.html



Baste the neckline and armhole.


Flip it through the shoulder seams


Make sure the pleats are the same size,then baste.Sew the upper body with the skirt and don't forget to baste the side seam too.


Pin the ribbon at the waist line then baste.Add the invisible zipper.

Voila! Beautiful vintage dress for T.

I add different stash for baby B.

Mommy and me

I really want to wear the same outfit with my daughter,can't find it anywhere so I decided to make a pair with this beautiful fabric. really like the results and so the little one. I'm using a pattern from Japanese magazine Mrs Style for my tunic and a Japanese pattern book for children for the little one dress. I also make one for my baby but it was too small for her to wear it now ; )
