Fall Dress


I used THIS tutorial to make Grace and Lilly fall dresses. Except instead of making Grace a 2T like she fits into I did a 3T...I'm still not sure why I decided this was a wonderful idea when I picked up the shirts at the store, but I know there was a reason. I also made Lilly a 3-6 months..although this really was a smart move, she'll be in that size very soon. So Grace's is a little big, and she'll be able to wear it for a long time. but that's a good thing.

Also she didn't think she needed to hold still at all while I tried to get a shot of my handy dandy work. Even though the first picture looks like shes holding still for me, she wasn't...thus the top of her head is cut off...that's ok, that just makes it easier for you all to look at the beautiful dress.

Instead of modeling the dress she really wanted to model her toothbrush...It's princess...and that's pretty cool to Grace. Too cool to not let it share her spotlight.

But we love the dress, and it works out great for running and jumping and dancing and even dressing up your favorite puppy, Scout, in.
(notice the toothbrush on the floor? nothing is that cool for too long!)
