Sewing mamas!Calling all AmityMama's who like to sew! Do you make quilts, clothes, diapers, bags? Do you love to run your fingers through fiber? Can't get enough just sewing, but want to talk about it too? Come on in!
This was my first woven shirred clothing and I enjoyed it. My fabric was 50 wide instead of 45 and I thought it was too big but it worked out well. I had to steam the heck out of it to get it to scrunch up tight though.
Ignore the bottom, that is where I started the shirring, but it wasn't working right. Started to seam rip and got sick of doing it do just flipped it over and shirred the other side lol. Still need to rip those threads out.
Also think I need to pull the dress down more so it's not all bunched up under her arm pits. But the straps are just pinned on anyway.
I like it! I made Brianna a Hello Kitty one like that a couple years ago, and the little bugger would have nothing to do with it.

I MUST give that a try. I've been a chicken about it, but that inspires me. Oh, my...blue is THE perfect color for your little girl. She looks beautiful in that. Good job!
