Sewing 101

About 6 months ago I found an amazing website that allows people to sell items that they have made on there. I often look through the website to see if there are any cute outfits for Miss Morgan. I came across some dresses that I just LOVED, but never bought for her. They are called pillowcase dresses. Every time I saw one I just kept thinking to myself...my mom could make that, so I never bought one. Well knowing that Morgan and I are headed to Colorado I decided that I...yes ME...was going to attempt to make Morgan and her cousin Peyton matching Halloween dresses. So I headed off to Jo-Ann's and found some fabric and ribbon and then headed to my mom's house for a lesson in sewing. See, I do not own a sewing machine, nor did I EVER think I would...but Shawn will be surprised to hear what our next purchase is going to be when he gets home from his hunting trip! :) The dress below is for Peyton...she is 5 months old. Each of the girls have a long-sleeve shirt to wear under it with black leggings, as it is COLD in Colorado right now. I was so worried the dress would not turn out...but it did and I am SO excited to make MORE of them for Miss Morgan and her Little Peyton!
