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!
Here is the dress that I made last week. I took a class on making bishops, so there will probably be a lot more soon lol! I've been smocking for years, but it just never occurred to me to do something *gasp* trendy with it Once again, I've copycatted this one, but at least I added my own touches ROFLOL! I put ricrac instead of lace on the sleeves, I used black stitching at the hem instead of the original pink, and I used a different smocking plate that was 3 colors instead of the original which was just pink.
I have a feeling this dress may make a few more appearances in my family, and I can't wait to come up with new fabric combos!
Ellie was very grumpy and tired for our photo shoot this morning, and she's holding her mouth kinda funny because she FINALLY cut teeth this weekend!!!
This is what she does when I ask her to show me her teeth!

Well that is just beautiful! You need to take a close up of the smocking to show the detail, it's hard to see from here....lol But it looks pretty.
