First up: Nora's birthday dress. I got this little piece of fabric with owls on it. It literally was under 24" square. And I had this adorable wrap dress pattern. And Nora's favorite animal has been an owl since her aunt bought her a stuffed owl at the zoo a few months back. So, the dress practically designed itself:
And this picture of Nora gazing out the window at the rain, while wearing her new sun hat, was just too adorable to go unnoticed.
I made Maddie a wrap dress from the same pattern. Hers has mermaids on it.
I showed you this dress that I made for Maddie from a small piece of fabric gifted to me by Gaylen. This is when she wore it one day, using the pocket for her stuffed puppy:
And an ABC dress I made from the remains of a piece of fabric from one of my bundles, after I'd made a dress for myself.
And pajama pants, started by Gaylen for her granddaughter, then abandoned in favor of more girly patterns. I didn't do much; just finished the waistband and added the cuffs to the bottom so I'd be certain the pants were long enough.
I made Maddie a dress from the remains of a border print I'd used for a dress, and a sweater to go with it. She wore this dress for Easter; Gaylen spotted it on her in some of my photos. I didn't have a pattern for the sweater, so I just winged it.
There are more, but that's enough for now! I'd quite forgotten how many adorable little kid garments I had produced!
I hope you're all having a nice weekend!

Those grands give you a whole new generation to sew for.
AMAZING! You are so talented and your adorable granddaughters are very lucky to have such pretty clothes made just for them.
I love that wrap dress! What pattern is it?
