....And Thursday brings the number to 48.......

I was able to make another 5 little dresses on Thursday bringing my total now to 48.


These two blue checked dresses [numbers 44 and 45] were made using more of the lovely fabric Karen sent me.  They are both trimmed up with a little pocket and as you can see I have made them look a little different by where I added extra trimmings.

This little dress [number 46] is made using the last of the pretty floral fabric Penny sent me from France but this time instead of a lion on the pocket I have appliqued a flower and added one of the buttons Twiggy sent me.

This pair [numbers 47 and 48] were made using some of the quilt cover my [much older] sister, Twiglet bought at a car boot for just 50p...what a great bargain.  As you can see we don't cut all the dresses out the same size so that all little girls get a dress whatever their size/age. Isn't it pretty sunshiny material?

So only another two to reach 50 and we still have fabric here to cut out more little dresses from so the sky's the limit  :-).

  1. You are really cracking on with those little dresses. Love the two from the quilt - two little sisters are going to be really pleased to get those.
    Thanks for the love by the way.

  3. I agree with Twiglet - as you go on the little additions are gorgeous. Every dress from number 1 has been great - it's just such fun to see what else you've added. I love all of these, and such a great idea if two sisters get the matching ones! Di xx

  5. Hi everyone. I'm delighted to have become a member of this forum and am looking forward to contributing.

    My interests are wide and varied but I reckon my real passion is for music. I love a wide variety such as
    Faithless, The Smiths, Enigma, The Cure & The Mission.

    I'm always looking for new places to download new music and the best place I have come across is
    [url=http://www.iomoio.com/index.php?pid=3140]Iomoio[/url]. Their music is only 15 cents a track so you can save a real fortune. And it's legal!

    Anyway, looking to make more posts soon.....
