Easter Attire


I don't usually sew clothes for the girls for a few reasons...
1) whatever I make, I have to make THREE of
2) they keep eating and growing, so eventually it won't fit (their dolls, on the other hand, never outgrow what I make for them - how considerate!)
3)... well, i can't think of any more reasons, but those two are big ones

But Easter was coming and I wanted to do something special for them. Plus, I needed to use the 2 yards of floral fabric I had to make me feel better about all the quilting fabric I've purchased lately.

So here they are... Emily & Vivian got Edith twirl skirts and Anna Claire's is the Oliver + S ice cream dress. Those skirts required a lot of gathering! 472 inches of it! phew! And of course, I didn't start sewing until Friday morning. It's an Easter miracle!


Hopefully they won't all have growth spurts next month.
