Default Just finished my first dress! (sewing)

I finished my DD's birthday dress! I am thrilled with how it turned out, and my DD said she loves it so much she wants to get married in it! She picked out the cake/candy fabric and I did the rest. I love it.

Here's a pic!

Sewing isn't as difficult as it looks. I started with easy things like baby blankets and worked my way up. This is the first article of clothing I've done, so it was quite a challenge, I admit. I probably could've started with something simpler, I just didn't like the simpler ones.

Great job! I love the fabrics and the pattern is so cute. I love sewing for my girlies, and they are always so proud to show off their mama-wear.
