Abacadabra 75


 Once again, I think that the instructions could definitely be better. I've only made two Abacadabra patterns and both of them needed more detailed instructions. However, the patterns themselves are very nice. I made this up in about 3 hours. The fabric is from Goodwill. I loved the pattern on it but hated the texture. Willa doesn't care about the texture apparently so that's fine. It is a dress. Willa took one look at it and pronounced it a bathrobe, put on her pajamas with the "robe" on top, and wore that ensemble for the rest of the day.

An amusing side story. Primrose was pretending to take my picture yesterday. I smiled for her and then she said "and now the back" and gestured for me to turn around and let her photograph me from behind. I think I should do more photography that isn't all about their clothes!
