Aug. 18, 2008 - Two Dresses Down . . . 4 to go

I finished Lily's dress last night.  I cut out all the pieces Saturday night and began to assemble the pieces after church yesterday.  I made ties for the back on this dress and two pockets for the skirt.  Lily's has a zipper on her dress too!  Her dress is lined in the bodice and gave me fits when I was putting in the zipper.  I decided to add a flirty ruffle to the bottom hem.

Katie is being very patient, waiting for her dress.  She wants it to be the same style as Lily's just longer.  I offered to make her a twirl skirt but she wants the jumper style.

My goal is to cut out her pattern today, cut the fabric tomorrow, sew it on Wednesday and Thursday. 

I took a few more pictures from around our house to keep anyone from getting any ideas that I am Super Mom. When I decide to sew I have to give up something temporarily, this weekend it was house chores.  So I have a ton of chores to catch up on today. Just thought I would keep things in perspective!
