The Butterfly Dress

This cute dress I got from Sewing in no mans Land. I could copy everything she makes, she does a really good job and is very generous with her patterns. This dress is called the Butterfly dress, because of the cute butterfly like sleeves. Go check out the pattern here and she has a really cute headband that she made that is adorable.







I do love these buttons< but am still trying to figure out how to perfect it a little more.


This one I made into a tunic to wear with leggins. I put a in the back instead of on the front this time.








And just a little sneak peak into what my yesterday looked like!!

Jumper for Ellie

My Sister Kim has 7 kids 5 boys and 2 girls. Here youngest girl is 5 and is still at a fun age to make things for. So last fall we went to Elaine's Quilt Block and picked out this cute fabric, so Kim could make Ellie a dress. Well I can't even imagine how crazy, hectic, busy life is with a 14 year old down to a 2 year old. Needless to say she finally let me make the jumper and it turned out really cute. I think these colors are cute, because she could wear all year long. How cute would it be with come cowboy boats in the fall!
