Anyway, when my mom was here {weeks and weeks ago for a short visit from the not-so-main-land} we had our usual sewing get together with the ladies. I picked up a couple new patterns and some fun fabric and began whipping this little number up. It was super simple, but really quite fun.
I really stepped out of my comfort zone here. For some reason, clothes scare me to death. I don't understand half of what the directions direct, so I usually abandon the pattern shortly after reading through it. I had lots of help nearby this time. Thanks to mom, Auntie Jill, and Auntie Cathy I finally finished my first attempt at clothes.
Now if the snow will hold off long enough for Adjoa to wear it a little, that would be truly awesome!
Here's a close-up of the apple on the little apron. I loved the cute "A". 'A' for apple, and of course, 'A' for Adjoa!

If you ever get bored, please come to my house and help yourself to my fabric stash! That is the cutest dress, and I love the apple too.
I LOVE this!! The fabrics are great together--and Adjoa looks so cute! What fun. And skirts are sooo easy to sew.
OMG!!!! That is SO cute!! Can I place an order :)
Amazing! The color combination is perfect! She looks adorable.
Oh sew sew cute!
Lois, that was as bad as Jessica pun. I expected it from Jessica, but not you.
Adjoa looks so cute and proud in her new dress her mommy made!! I love the colors on her too. Fun! I can't even sew the elastic on my girls ballet shoes....keep poking my finger and it bleeds, and the stupid needle doesnt even go through. I can't sew...YOU CAN! You go girl!
Wow what a beautiful dress, Adjoa is darling. I love how you have her hair done too.
