Fun Dresses
Yesterday, I finished dresses for Rachel and Sarah.
I found this darling Mary Englebreit material at the fabric outlet for $3.50 a yard and bought quite a bit thinking I would make jumpers for them out of it.
But one day while shopping at Target, I saw these cute t-shirts that were very good price and they go with the fabric beautifully!
I remembered a dress my sister in law made for my niece Jill many years ago. Basically you make a skirt gather it at the waist and attach it to the t-shirt! These are soft, comfy dresses to run around and play in, or to sleep in.
They like them and so do I. I may try this again and make a few changes in how I do it, but it was fun and it is great to see the finished result.

They really look like a skirt and top, but a little dress is so much easier for the girls. They turned out great!
