My newest creation

I pulled out my (dusty) sewing machine today to make something I saw on a blog the other day. Again, my creative juices have been flowing lately and I couldn't wait to try this out. I found this tutorial from this blog on how to make a girls dress out of an old t-shirt. Here is the t-shirt I used before I cut it up...

And here's Allie's new dress!..


It was a little harder than I thought. Both shirts I used (for the dress and the ruffle at the bottom) were a really soft, stretchy cotton so it was difficult to sew and it came out a little longer than I wanted but I can't wait to try making another one. I know, Allie is my first born and she's already wearing hand-me-downs but I don't think she cares!
