Molly you are very talented. Outfits are beautiful and I like the colors. Have you tried adding fabric to tee shirt to make a dress. I purchased a cute shirt from our neighborhood Goodwill and did this...it was very pretty.

wow -- great work! -- I used to sew my own clothes a long time ago, using Vogue patterns no less, but I discovered that Macy's and Dillard's do it cheaper with better quality and workmanship -- lol-- I do make Abby her turtleneck and mock turtleneck fleece shirts, using a Vogue pattern (best dressed doggy in the area)

I think you did a fantastic job. These are adorable, and your curves look perfect. I really love the bloomers!!!

I used to make my girls clothes when they were young...before there were sergers for the home sewer. :shock: Yikes, how old am I?

They are cute. I used to make all clothes for my 2 girls back when in my 20s, 2 dresses in an evening.Piece of cake.

Now in my 60s, I made a outfit, similar to yours, for my great-grand daughter it took me 2 WEEKS! and I still need to put on buttons. I LOVE to make quilts. Thats it for little dresses.

Moral: make them while you are young and before quilts.

Those are adorable. Remember that God made seam binding just for curves.

Very cute! I just spent a week of my vacation using my DMIL's very basic machine to sew dresses for my two great nieces. "To Tie For" pattern by Olive Ann designs. Very easy and super cute - reversible too! Pattern also comes with a doll pattern and headband for the girls!
