Dress Making Report: Turning 2 Birthday Dresses!

Here are a couple of dresses I made for my nieces, they are 3 months apart and turned 2! I am so grateful to have been able to make these dresses for them. Also, I am very proud to see how much they have grown in just 2 short years. Happy Birthday Girlies, I love you both very much!!

Dress Making Report: The Batman Dress

A few friends of mine decided to get this dress for a friends birthday.  I am totally in love with batman and had to accept! This fabric is amazing, and was totally wonderful to work with (100% Cotton, Batman pattern, perfect!). Also, with this one I got to put the images together as best I could to make it look like a comic, which was awesome.  Maria loves the joker so I put him right in the middle of it all.  Happy Birthday Maria!! I hope it is everything you wanted and more!
