It's a fish & dye parade! Or, d&s&s's....

Okay, the fish weren't dyed, but I'm doing the fish first. I made these two shirts for Gabriel, and then Raven and Abby decided they each wanted one. Gabe's are from Ottobre 2/2002 (I think, might be 2003), Abby's is KSFT, Raven's is a KS pattern that comes with flare leg flat front pants & skirt (don't remember the number). The 1st 2 are Gabriel's, the other two are the girls', they picked out the colors themselves. Stretch terry from Sherrie.




Pants for Gabriel and bibskirt for Abby, both from 1/2005 Ottobre, race car PRR (Abby wants to be a racecar driver, funny since we adamantly don't watch racing). I then dyed these dylon midnight blue. before and after shots here.


oh, excuse abby's expression. she didn't want to stop reading to pose. also, i skipped the belt loops on both of these....because i sort of forgot

lizards and more ottobre in reply!

pants and shirt for raven in white on white from walmart, patterns from ottobre 1/2005 before and after lwi-dying (red & purple)...



Lizards from Cheryl (LaVieBoheme), ksft shorts and shirts, added snap placket from ottobre:

And finally, PRR pirates and baseball players KSFT raglan shirts (w/ottobre snap plackets) for the boy. Totally stole the idea from Cheryl Though I am going to be dying the baseball players orange due to a stain incurred yesterday.

Traffic knit scrap from ebay combined with Ottobre 2/2005 raglan shirt:


One more in reply, mama dress...

This is KS2787 and I think it looks better in the illustration than it does on, though I must say it doesn't photograph well (that's probably my fault )
Excuse the dirty mirror.


That's it, thanks for looking
