I call it the "Cute Cats" Dress
I got all my inspiration for this dress from IKAT BAG's winter dress tutorial. Thank you Lier for creating this awesome tutorial, did I say aweeeeesome? That 2 year old bodice pattern is just what I wanted. I made it using a light weight corduroy fabric from Joann. I started out with plans to exactly replicate Lier's tutorial, but due to my very limited experience with cutting fabric, I made an error and had to cut for the bodice and skirt separately. Then I had to invent a way to bind them together with minimal damage to the overall look.
Here is an action shot of my daughter BN
Isn't she cute?. Being the little sister of a 6 year old, BN's very interested in everything his'. She wants everything that he's interested in, to her he is a super hero. Look at her, she is holding one of the guys from her big brother's truck set :-) Oops.. That bunny's underpants are almost falling. Well, BN is sleeping now, I need to post this, so I have to just go with this picture. Pardon the appearance of the bunny :-)
Heyyyyyyy! I'm so thrilled that you've started a new blog! And I get to be the first commentor on this post! That dress turned out really nice and the cats are so cute! Very nice "save" on the separated bodice-skirt thing with the trim strip in the middle- yay.
