Wild About Fabric!

So as I was walking around Hobby Lobby the other day, I saw some really cute fabric and thought I'd buy a yard of two different prints and see if I could create something cute. I didn't have any patterns to go by so I kinda created my own from another dress hanging in Sydnee's closet. It took me about 4 hours to make, which I guess wasn't all that bad, considering it's my first! I'm really pleased with the way it turned out, however, I think next time I'll use a pattern and not so much guess work!

I owe a big thank you to Meemaw for teaching me some very basic sewing skills when I was probably 10 years old. I also used Meemaw's sewing machine which Mom said she bought when Mom was a little girl. That machine was obviously taken care of because it still works like a charm!

This dress may just be the beginning to a new found hobby...stay tuned!
