Why on earth won’t my link appear? Whatever, google butterick 3351.

It doesn’t have that princess pointy waist, but it has the wrap around sleeve concept, whatever that may be called. And the pointy waist is a little too costume like for my taste on what is meant to be a…[Read more]

Wow, that reminds me of a prom dress I begged my mom to make for me in 1992. It also reminds me of the dress belle wears in beauty and the beast, which was my favorite of all the Disney dresses until Elsa.

It’s a slightly dated style, but you might be able to find something similar. It’s not a cape let at all but part of the sleeve. I feel like I…[Read more]

Cotton lawn would be a great choice. It’s very nice to wear, presses well, and is easy to sew. Depending on the color and print, it may be opaque or it may be a bit sheer. If it is sheer, you can line the dress pretty easily. I’m sure somebody here can talk you through it when you get to that part, if it becomes an issue.

It’s a really low-res image so I can’t make it out very well. If it’s attached is it like an oversized Peter Pan collar?
For a capelet you could modify the Red Riding Hood cape from Little Things To Sew. Just leave the hood off and shorten it. If you take a little off the front panels so they don’t overlap then you could have a ribbon tie at the…[Read more]

I love your story.

I’ve done a pair of navy shorts up to the zipper and I have some brown one cut ready to sew. Now I need to waste an hour going to get zips. I’m fairly sure I’ll get these two done, I’m not sure if I’ll get any more though. I think two will get me through 🙂

In answer to your question Nicole, the biggies need everything! Miss Chloe just needs a few pretties in the 3-6 month size so they are ready but much more in the next size again – slow progress sewing.

It makes it very difficult when you have a little boy one minute then you see him literally growing in his sleep the next – my mother infuriated…[Read more]
