Seasonal Dresses!

A friend needed a new dress or two, and sent a photo.

I decided to put a seasonal spin on the photo, to see if they would work for her. I made the first one (using a separate tee pattern and skirt pattern, couldn't find one with both together) and found that the Tee was too long, so I had to pull it apart and fix it. In the winter seasonal dress (green top) the 2nd and 3rd tier of the skirt are the suggested sizes, cut out just as the pattern shows, but they are the 2nd and 3rd tier, it was too long to include the first tier. in the fall seasonal, (gold top) I changed the pattern lengths to get all three tiers in.

Once completed, I realized a belt was important to make it look finished, so I made one, that was reversible, to give a little different look. I think they turned out very well (photos taken prior to hand sewing down the neck facing, sorry.)

Halloween Kitchen Towels

My sister and I just started on these. An early holiday gift, that will be going out immediately to all the family.

Some of them have the reverse side decorated, but they are all decorative kitchen towels. For those with shoes, one side of the shoes are black, the other side are ruby slippers (or gold elfin shoes, both of which take some time to create.)

We are on to the Christmas decorations next, and then all the towels will go in the mail, so everyone can be decorated for all the holidays.

Day 2, Tina and I have been busy! One on designs, the other doing the sewing, to get a different spin on some of these (these do not have reverse side finishing):
