EASTER DRESSES

Well, the Easter dresses for Autumn, Mara and Kayla are finished and delivered.  My daughter came down to visit her friend on Sunday and I took the dresses over.  They loved them and promised me pictures on Easter.  Kayla was not feeling well yesterday and Mara was really fussy.  We just made sure the dresses fit.  You've seen Autumn's dress:
Everything is stitched, hem is in, buttons and button holes.

Here is Mara's dress, pinafore, bonnet & panties.  The fabric is the same as Autumn's dress.



Here is Kayla's outfit. 



I am so glad these are finished!  This was such a fussy pattern, not to mention all the pieces.  I have already told the girls not to expect any more like this!  Guess I will just have to bite the bullet and buy a new, easier pattern next time they go on sale at JoAnne's.  Can you see how sad I am about that, LOL!

Love from Liri

    The dresses came out just perfect. I love all the detail, they look very pretty and dressy but they also look very comfortable. Look forward to seeing them in their dresses.

    What a wonderful job you did. It makes me feel so bad that I did not have the time to sew for my grandaughters when they were little. Maybe I will be able to for my great grandaughters some day. 26 weeks til retirement.

    Beautiful outfits - give yourself a big pat on the back.

    Those are all so pretty. I'm sure they will get a lot of compliments on them. I especially like the lace trim on Kayla's pinafore.
