Finished Dress

Cut out and ready to assemble.

Elastic sewn in to gather  the back some.

Okay here is my first entry of many more to come. I made this dress from a blog I ran across on Pintrest. Here is her blog  http://www.craftinessisnotoptional.com/ the tut is this cute little dress http://www.theribbonretreat.com/blog/lets-fly-a-kite-sundress.html featured on The Ribbon Retreat.  I just loved it and waited for the nerve to make it. Well, with the Summer getting hotter here on the Gulf Coast Little Miss Ruby is in need of breezy dresses that do not require  fussy closures. I just knew the perfect fabric in my "Fabric Stash" I was going to use. I started on it at lunch(12 ish) and finished it up around 2:45 pm. I did add elastic to the sides and back to help it gather but in all it is uber cute! I know uber really you say but I just love the word:)! Ruby loved the dress but was fussy so I will add a model photo later I promise! The fabric is by Michael Miller Dumb Dot is the Pink and Scoops is the Ice Cream. I purchase from fabric.com (no endorsements just letting you guys know) ps I wish I was getting paid to sew!! HINT HINT to who ever makes that happen!!! I promise when I get the hang of this Blog thing I will make a revamp SOON!!
