Feliz dress without ruffles.



Here is another version of the Feliz dress, this time without ruffles. It's very sedate in comparison. I decided to go sans ruffles because Primrose is only 2 1/2 and has all she can do to keep moving around without fighting a bunch of extra fabric. It was considerably less work without the ruffles and used a whole heck of a lot less fabric.

Jeans skirt


Not my most successful project but Willa likes it quite a bit. I started to cut off the legs of the jeans to make a skirt, and then I decided to leave them mid-thigh length and add a bit of skirt. I put the skirt on fairly low so that Willa could still access the pockets. I don't love how it looks and I was definitely half-assed about construction. She can use it until it falls apart and then we'll start again. The added fabric was already in my stash, I picked it up in a thrift store.
