My Newest Project!!!

 So I really have never been much of a sewer except for the last six months when I got a sewing machine. Like I said in one of my earlier posts, my first real project was Lillie's baby bedding and that was super ambitious of me! After months of toiling after the bedding I realized that I really started to like sewing. Maybe this could actually be a hobby of mine! A few weeks ago both Joann Fabrics and Hobby Lobby had their patterns on sale for $0.99 and I couldn't pass that up! I bought a few patterns for Lillie that I thought I would try. I even found a really cute dress for me, but when we were in the check out line I got so scared of the idea of making myself something that I gave it to the cashier and told her I didn't want it. I'm a baby I know! I figured that a baby is easy cause it doesn't have to be some form fitting dress. Anyway, maybe someday I'll get brave. So I bought this pattern:

Last week we finally bought the fabric and I finished it today! It was actually pretty easy and a lot of fun! So this is what I made, Lillie's Easter dress:


I'm super excited cause I think it turned out really cute, and Lillie seems to like it! Anyway, YAY for sewing and I think that if there is anyone out there that is scared of sewing, just do what I did, TRY IT! Oh and here is a preview of my next project:
