Another School Dress...

How can I resist when Amelia comes up to me and says:

"Mama, I'm a little sad that I wore all my new school dresses already. They are so pretty and I love them so much. Maybe I could put some more new ones on my wish list?"

Um, Ya, can't say no. In fact, I was so touched by her that I made this one during her nap that day.
Yes, it's another Pattern's By Figgy. My FAVORITE pattern maker out there by far. (And yes, I do have a little crush a Shelly but that has nothing to do with awesome clothes designs).


It's big, but in a month, it will fit her perfectly. To fix a little of the bagginess, she asked ever so sweetly if she could have a black belt just like the cool one I made myself. (LOL)


With each rolled hem I'm getting better. I love the look and the feel of it. Plus, then I don't have to hem!




Since Amelia is super girly right now (I know it will change at some point) I added a little bow at the neckline, which turns out to be the first thing she commented on.


I'm so glad that she likes what I make her. I remember my mom making me some bell bottom double knit polyester pants for school which I hated and use to tuck into my boots after I'd left the house. I sure hope Amelia keeps liking what I make for her!

By the way, this is the Tee For Two Pattern. It's the same one that I used to make Zeke's shirt out of! Such a versatile pattern!
