Latest Dresses

Here are my most recent creations. If you see anything you like, let me know. I am branching out and trying new things, but the pillowcase dress and A-line jumper are two of my favorite styles.

This is Caroline's latest pillowcase dress. I modified the pattern and I think I made it better. I was a little nervous about working with stripes at first, but it turned out really well. It looked really good on her and didn't look as much like a bubble like the previous one.

This is Caroline's maroon jumper, perfect for football season and any season. This will look great alone or paired with a white turtleneck as the weather cools off.

Here are the most recent fabrics that I have bought. All washed and ready to cut!

Maroon and White!

Well, my search for the perfect maroon fabric has ended. I was so excited when I found this fabric and knew it was the right one. I had looked at a few places and found some colors that almost made it, but just wasn't sure about them. They were close, but not IT. Sometimes you just know it when you see it...and I did. I thought the matching gingham looked really good, too. Now, if I can just figure out what I want to make...probably either a jumper or pillowcase dress, but maybe a top and shorts or pants. Football season starts this weekend, but Caroline has a few outfits to wear to get her started, so thank goodness I don't have to rush too fast on it.

It may not show up well on your screen, but I promise it looks good in person

More dresses for Caroline

Here are my latest creations for Caroline. I've got some other projects in my head, but I am trying to decide what to do next and with which fabrics. I have lots of different patterns to work with so it is hard to decide. My pattern collection is growing because every time they go 99 cents at Hobby Lobby, I take advantage of it!

I made a jumper in a smaller size because the first one was too big, but at least she can wear it later on. This should be perfect for fall and winter with a turtleneck underneath.


I found a different pattern for a pillowcase dress and it turned out as I thought it would as I followed the pattern. (Sometimes I have my doubts when I start on a new pattern and I just tell myself to follow through with what it says and just wait and see...like when I made shorts for the first time and they turned out fine.) It's not bad, but as I thought, it is a little short and wide (bubbly) on her. However, the very top of this one is wider than the previous pattern and I think this gives it a much better scrunch with the ribbon tied. I think I will modify this pattern the next time I make it and go a few inches longer and narrower. She can probably wear this one a year or two down the road as a top (maybe even three, seriously). I think I'll make some pants out of the blue fabric to go with it as it gets shorter on her.
