Bad sewing mommy-- no cookie.
This is somewhat of a temper tantrum for me. Lorelei has been on a character kick, wanting things with Pooh Bear, Hello Kitty, and Strawberry Shortcake on her clothes. Its totally not my style.
I have made her a few things, but its really not something I want to do. So, this is the first in a series of compromises. Well, not really a compromise. As always I just sort of make what I want and since I still dress her they get worn at least a bit. I went out of my way to make them look homemade. Like I said-- bad sewing mommy. In my defense, I happen to like rick rack.
It IS Strawberry Shortcake, just the old style one from a vintage 1980 fabric I got at the thrift store. The strawberries are also a vintage find.
