Our Lil Candy Corn!

 I saw a cute lil idea for an infant costume and it was candy corn. I thought that I could just make a dress out of it and what cuter than a candy corn dress for Katelyn. Of course, I had to make things a little harder on myself because I decided that the fabric was too thin so I lined it. I've not made many dresses before so the extra layer added a new element to everything. It didn't turn out perfect and I know how I should have done it but it is good enough for the few weeks of wear she'll get out of it. She was pretty excited to get to wear her new "Candy Corn" Dress!! And it was hit at school too!

Of course she couldn't just stand still....she had to "model" it for me!

A little sewing project

I got a sewing machine about a month ago and have had fun experimenting and making fun things. I made a dress for Katelyn first and after some altering because my model is a stick - I think it turned out pretty well (especially for the first project since ohhhh probably middle school home ec!)

My model was real cooperative so this is the best shot I could get!
I can't wait to make more fun dresses/outfits for her!
I'm in love with my sewing machine!
