Summer Blues

And to continue on the curtain trend, here's another dress that used a discarded curtain as the bias strip and the piping (oh yea..I got my mojo back!)

This was from Oliver + S' Popover Sundress (Amanda -- this is one of their free patterns). It's pretty much like a pillowcase dress, with an A-line.

Tried my hand at making my own piping using this tutorial

This dress reminds me of summer - kids having fun by the pool or splashing around with the garden hose

However, I'm not sure if the sizing is on the small size, or if I made a mistake when sewing the sideseams...but it's a little difficult to put her arms through, and it's definitely a snug fit on the top.

And it's way too long for my liking...

Will definitely be shortening it by about 2-3 inches just so she'll be more comfortable when running around...

And for when she's trying to do her handstands.
