The knot dress.

Well hello. It's been a while! Our Christmas was great! Santa brought me a cold but besides that. It was fantastic. The girls got everything they wanted. L got his RC car. And the best gift I got was my sewing machine. Ever since I was little I've always wanted to learn how to sew. I was never taught so when L surprised me with my machine I was really happy. So far I've made a fleece/fabric case for our udraw, a zebra with R, Monster with K, camera strap & little pillow for R's LaLa Loopsey.

I've always admired the clothing by Matilda Jane. And the knot dress was really popular for a while. So I looked all over the internet for a free pattern. Because of course you can find anything on the internet right? (So I thought) Well it took me quite a long time to finally find one for this dress. I was really excited when I found a tutorial. Check out R's dress. She was so excited I made it. Her words were "It's beautiful". So it made me feel really good.

I'm excited to try to make a new one for R for her V-day party. I just have to learn how to work with elastic.
