Emelia's dress will begin shortly!
Emelia has chosen the Amy Butler Belle Chrysanthemum fabric for her dress so now I can start making plans to make the dress. I looked up elastic smocking on the internet and found great advice for doing this since it is a new technique for me. Here is the link: www.thriftyfun.com/tf67395276.tip.html
I also looked up boning because this dress has this also. Hopefully I can find all the supplies! Anyway, I'll keep you up to date with my progress. Slow but steady!

Workin' hard
Wow! I have a lot going on, fun!! Right now, I am almost finished with my first organic cotton baby outfit, want to make more. I am making a porch glider cushion for my friend Gail and hope to start work on a dress for Sharon's friend Gale. Also, I'm making a dress for daughter Emily. I am planning some other new stuff:
1. Girl baby outfits
2. Baby hats
3. Cool skirt from Anna Maria Horner
4. Long sleeve kyoto tops
5. New kimono patterns for toddlers
6. Amazing vintage pattern dress
So much to do...so little time.
Anyway, it keeps me out of trouble. This dress is so cool, I want to try something similar.
