I have been very overdue (hee...hee) for some baby gifts for some friends so I sat down one afternoon last week to play catch up. I first made two of these little dresses. I did two sizes 12-18 months mostly because these babies came last fall and I haven't been on the stick enough to get them a gift. So, large sizes were in order!

Some People Go To ALT to Network…Some People Go To ALT to Sew Men’s Stretchy Pants…We Are of the Pants Persuasion
Let me explain.... No wait. It's too weird...and it doesn't make any sense. Let's just do this: I am going to tell you a story. A true story. A strange story that involves swants, gold spandex, faux fox fur, Instagram, a guy named Stone, and of course Elizabeth and I. And hopefully you know us well enough by now that when I say Elizabeth and I and a story you understand that of course its going to be strange and you won't find any amount of gold spandex and faux fur unnatural. Now, with ... View the Post
