bitty baby in white

People, today I am a proud little mama. Last week I drew my first dress pattern with the help of a little baby body, a tape measure, plain white paper and a pencil with a big fat eraser on the end. And this past weekend I made my first dress with a 2 layered the skirt and binding tape along the edges and a real working zipper that I somehow managed to sew on straight and right side up and I have no idea how I pulled that one off. Here she is, my baby in her baptism dress:

    I took a couple years of sewing in school and don’t even think I could make that! I don’t think I would attempt a zipper.

  16. That child is so cute she should be illegal. Amazing work with the dress, it looks great!
