So, I brought my sewing on our brief little getaway and worked on Brenna's dress hem while enjoying uninterrupted time alone(while hubby went on a walk). However, Fiona's had to wait until Saturday night while Liam slept and then an hour before church...eeek! But they are done, and I liked them quite well...so did the girls:-)
As I said in an earlier post, I used pre-smocked material. I liked it...easy to deal with. All I did was sew up the back seam and hem the bottom, then I used matching ribbon for the straps. The bodice is a touch long on Brenna, but that just means longer wear, right?
I didn't get any real Easter Lilies...but these are much lovelier Easter flowers, don't you think?!
Blessings,
Sommer

Beautiful Easter flowers!!! :) What precious young ladies.
Your daughters are just darling, and they look so sweet in their dresses! I especially love the yellow daisies. And what a blessing to have two sweet little Easter flowers that will not wilt after a few days!
Yours in Christ,
Shannon
Oh they're so cute!! You did a great job with them...and I have to say what a good Mama you are...I'm quite guilty of machine hemming!!--I'm not sure I remember the last hand sewn hem I did actually...I know I've done somethings...so you have my applause! :)
As much as I love flowers, your flowers are definitely more beautiful than any 'real' ones you could have gotten!
I finished Fiona's dress on Sunday morning, too. Or, rather, finished to wearablenss...I fastened it with diaper pins (on the inside of course!). So I wouldn't feel bad if I were you!
