Well this dress was more difficult then the past dresses Ive made. Ive never made a winter dress.. nor have I ever put a zipper in. So this was a first for me. It came out pretty good. There are some areas Im not so thrilled with. The zipper kicked my butt and Im not even sure I did it right but it zips up and down lol. Im so proud though cause I went out of my comfort zone and tried a more difficult pattern. Thanks to Jennifer for inspiring me to make some winter dresses and also for telling me about Joann's sale on cordoroy :)
Mya is absolutely THRILLED with her dress. She kept thanking me and telling me how much she loves her new dress. Mya just loves to wear dresses so she is just so excited. When Jacob saw the finished dress on Mya he said WOW mommy you did a really good job!!! lol Chloe watched me sew a good portion of this dress and I showed her how to gather. She said shed always wondered how I got the ruffles at the bottom of the dresses. I told her next time just ask!! lol
Anyway... Im excited to make some other things that are out of my comfort zone :)
