My daughter Tiffany is at it again with Stampin' Up! Fabric Projects, this time using Twitterpated Fabric (item #125412). She embellished this plain school uniform dress for my granddaughter and made it look so cute! The dress was on Land's End's Clearance Rack at a barg ain price, and Tiffany often buys a size or two (or 3 or 4!) ahead so she is never left with no clothes that fit rapidly growing children. So this dress is still a bit big. Tiffany also buys birthday and Christmas gifts up to a year ahead! But more about that another time:)
Olivia is seen here modeling her dress embellished with Stampin' Up!'s Twitterpated Fabric and Stampin' Up! buttons . Tiffany assured me that the choice of shoes was Olivia's, not Tiffany's:) They both love shoes, but Olivia is still learning to get the shoe style to match the outfit. She has started young with her love for shoes, and I can assure you that apple did not fall far from the tree.
There is very little sewing on this Stampin' Up! fabric project. Tiffany left the edge of the ruffle raw so it can rag as it is washed. A simple running stitch was run through the length of fabric (I think she sewed 2 lengths together to get it long enough), and then it was gathered and sewn onto the dress. That's it for the ruffle.
The flowers are cut out with the Big Shot using the Fun Flowers die. Simple, fun, cute! I love that you can cut 8 layers of fabric at once on the Big Shot. Quick and easy! I'm so proud of Tiffany for her creativity…and for getting projects planned, prepped and FINISHED with 2 children, ages 1 and 2., under foot…and sewing machine and papercrafting projects and cooking, etc. My hat is off to her! Tiffany is blogging her experience of being a very creative SAHM on a shoestring budget. Follow her at: http://www.handydandyhelper.blogspot.com/. I subscribe to her blog so I don't miss anything!
