Macy Giggles Dress

What a wonderful Mother's Day weekend! Saturday started with me taking a sewing class at my favorite spot, Stitcher's Playhouse. I was able to make Julezee a super cute dress from this pattern:
I hope to have my pictures uploaded tomorrow. We used a navy, yellow, and white daisy print-super cute. She loves it because its a great twirling dress. I then went to the ballpark (my second home) and spent some time selling snow cones with some pretty great friends. (I'm so blessed with our friends--we've made amazing friends in the four years we've been here). Then, dinner at our favorite Mexican place. Tomorrow, I'm hoping for a trip to the strawberry patch to pick some berries and pick up a cake--yumm!!!

Ice cream summertime dress...for Emma

I just finished my niece's dress, actually started and finished it today. It was an easy one though...New Look 6578...with sholder ties instead of buttons. She's just turned four and picked the material herself...bright pink with white polka dots tutti-frutti fabric from Joann's. Not my favorite, but she liked it. It reminds me of a summertime ice cream cone. I don't know why, I just think ice cream and summertime when I see this dress. I got the sholder tie idea from my favorite little material store in Smyrna, Stitchers Playhouse. An amazing little store with the sweetest ladies running it. The best fabric and the best customer service around. They are always willing to help with a problem you might be having or to pick out the perfect material.
