February Makes

Just a couple notes today about a few things.

Back in February, I made special dresses for the girls to wear to daddy daughter date night at 

Chick-fil-a.

I used the Hourglass pattern by Rabbit Rabbit Creation and I let the girls pick out all the fabrics, which are a combination of some I already had and some we bought at Hobby Lobby.

Also in February, I made myself a knit dress using the Halla Slim Dolman shirt pattern.  I don't really like the batwing look of dolman shirts, but this slim version eliminates most of the batwing action, so it's just my style.  It's a satisfying, super-quick make with only 5 pieces to cut and 9 seams sew.

Panels have gotten easier to use now that he's bigger, but not too big for the panel to act as the front or back of a shirt.  He likes owls and hubby likes Dr. Who, so it was a fun panel choice.

iPhone quality photos are not helping you out, but each little owl in the tree has a different accessory to represent the different Doctors. :)

Next time, I'll show you this little stinker's first decent modeling session with Mommy-made duds.
