About two months ago, I found this cute little tutorial on
Make It and Love It for a "Front Tie Spring Dress."
It was so cute I went out and bought some pretty pink material with an ecru medallion print. The instructions are pretty clear and the techniques are pretty basic, so I prewashed and preshrank the material, then measured the Girl, and started sewing. That was 2 weeks ago.
So far, you can see how far I've gotten.
Not sure if you can tell in the photo but two things are going on here. 1.) My buttonhole maker doesn't stitch well on the return side of the button hole (and the thread keeps breaking because I haven't got the correct tension), and 2.) I'm about to run out of thread. I had enough to make the dress but completely forgot about those pesky button holes.
*sigh*
I really want a serger. :)
