As you know, I have a thing for houndstooth. When I was at Hobby Lobby forever ago picking up materials for this project, I also snagged some awesome houndstooth fabric. I originally was going to make a paper bag skirt for myself, but I changed my mind and decided to make a dress for Vera. Here’s how it turned out:
And you’ll have to wait for me to take a picture of her modeling it! She wore it yesterday to my grandfather’s funeral, but I forgot to take a picture of her wearing it. I’ll get one soon! Update: here’s one!
It was pretty fun to make, though it took me waaaay longer than it should have for something so basic. I’m hoping to continue to making clothes for Vera as she grows, just like my mom did for me!
Seriously so cute! Love it!
Great job!! Do you do a lot of sewing?
@StaceyActually not really! I would like to do more, though. What about you?
ITS SO CUTE!!!
Beautiful! I loce that pattern. Did you use one? if so, care to share?
@Maridith @ Strictly HomemadeI actually just “winged it” 🙂 and didn’t use a pattern, though I held up one of her dresses to the fabric to give me an idea of what size to make it.
@Aliesha I would love to do more, but it’s hard with three kids getting into it, lol. Emery hates it when I sew for some reason, and Bria wants to touch EVERYTHING! But, I do enjoy it.
