Pink Knit Dress

When I picked up this fabric at Wal-mart for $1.50 a yard, I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it - I just knew I liked the color and feel (so soft). Miss K looks so cute in this color; of course, it had to be hers. It is very thin and flimsy so I knew I had to layer it. I ended up doubling up the fabric. I also plan on having Miss K wearing it over a peasant slip. I loosely followed this dress pattern. I think it turned out very cute! Miss K spent at least 15 minutes twirling in it!

Stripe Skirt

I put this skirt together for Miss K this afternoon. I used fabric from my statch and matched it to a shirt Miss K already had. I'm not sure if I like it or not. It looks a bit like a too-long tube. I'm deciding if I should just leave it and use it for a play skirt (which was it's main purpose) or try to 'fix' it. Any ideas?

Conference Candy Bags

I love the blog, MADE. It is fantastic; check it out if you haven't ever been there before.
When I saw these cute bags on her blog, I immediately put them on my projects list. After looking at them a second time, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with them.
Last General Conference, I put together some bags to keep the kids entertained (after all, 8 hours of church is a lot!).
I thought I would add something fun each Conference to keep things exciting. One of my kids favorite parts of Conference is unlimited M&M's. Perfect! A cute little bag to hold their chocolate.
I've never made bags with the zipper like this. They are so easy and go together very quickly. This was also my first time working with plastic; a little tricky on the sewing machine, but it came together in the end. I think they turned out very cute and handy for my first go-around.
