Itty Bitty

I finished my Itty Bitty Baby Dress this morning...It is absolutely DARLING! I guess it helps that the fabric was extra cute. Took me no time at all and of course would have gone much quicker had I cut 2 pieces of the skirt in the beginning. Oh well, next time. I did, however, learn 2 new sewing things:
1. How to gather!! So exciting (should I have known that before??)
2. How to put on binding (Not 100% but pretty close)



So, what do you think??

  1. Very cute! I love the ties on the shoulders. And congrats on learning how to do a binding, they can be tricky!

    Also, I have to tell you how insanely jealous I am that you get to have Leslie as your next door neighbor...beyond, beyond jealous.
