Divine wanted to sew a dress.
I had her draw a picture of what she wanted it to look like.
She described it as "long and bushy with puffy sleeves."
Then she went into my closet o' fabric to pick out the materials she wanted to use. She helped me pin the pattern to the fabric, cut it and even sew it! She sewed the entire skirt, basting stitches and all. She remembered to backstitch upon starting and stopping, and zigzagged the seams. You are a superior seamstress my dear Divine!
Seriously, she can sew a straighter line than most women.
WOW! Sew beautiful!
ReplyDeleteamazing. tell divine I just sewed my first skirt last night...she could teach me a thing or two.
ReplyDeleteWow Divine! Looks so cute! Jordan, you did? Pictures to come on your blog?
ReplyDeleteOh Katy! I love your glass poppy in the background, like REALLY love it. Where did you get it?
maybe she can teach me how to sew!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ann. It's actually a metal hibiscus. Really heavy. We bought it from a guy at the Shrimpfest on Amelia Island.
ReplyDeletei think what Katy did (and Divine did) is totally a big Dill. <3 it!

ReplyDeleteYour new header is super cute and clever.
ReplyDeleteYou are a wonderful mother of girls. Divine's dress is just darling.
Jessica,
ReplyDeleteI pined over those at Fishs Eddy, but couldn't bring myself to pay the prices they wanted, and I ended up finding these at Shrimpfest on Amelia Island where they were DIRT CHEAP! I even got a gigantic one-I'll have to take a proper picture to show you.
I love the length and the puffs! Such a darling and clever girl. Loves, Tisse
ReplyDeleteWow! She did a great job. That dress is beautiful! She is inspiring me to sew.
