Dresses for Mila!

Just recently I had the pleasure of attending

 a baby shower!  The young lady is adopting 

a two year old orphan from Uganda, Mila!

That is so amazing!

I whipped up a few simple dresses 

for Mila.  Using the #pillow case

 pattern for the first two dresses,

 this is what I sewed!

I just measured the front side of 

dress from seam to seam and cut 

 a piece of lace with the 

measurement I just took.  I  

sewed the top of lace in place!

Here I  cut (2) pieces of lace measuring 7" 

long.  Then I cut (1) 7-1/2" long 

piece of dress fabric and pressed 

down all the edges. Next,  sew

 this piece down the center!  Remember

 to start sewing below the top seam or 

you won't be able to get the 

ribbon through the seam!!

Here I used a pattern, but the pattern was

 so bad.  I ended up making by own pattern! 

Here she is wearing one of her dresses!

So Cute!!
