Love Notion Everyday Playdress-Flower Girl Dress

Boy AJ's little sister was the flower girl/Jr Bridesmaid.  She was so excited to be a part of their wedding.  She was easy to sew for and LOVED her dress.  I used the same knit fabric as the bridesmaids dress and added a gold glitter tulle overtop and for the sleeves.  She was beautiful!

Girl A's face when she saw this green muslin (trial run) version of her dress was hilarious!  She said she looked like Shrek in it!  Kids!

I made the skirt overlay out of two layers of gold glitter tulle and used my serger with gold wooly nylon thread for the rolled lettuce hem.  Too cute!

Testing with knit sleeve under, didn't like

Girl M preferred the naked sleeve (no knit)

Gold glitter EVERYWHERE!!

  Our wedding photographer, who is a dear family friend, had a stroke a month after the wedding.  She is currently in rehab and getting better every day.  We pray that she makes a full recovery.  So professional wedding photos are delayed at the time being.

Happy Sewing

Until Next Time...................
