just call me dress-maker extraordinaire…

I’ve just finished making two gorgeous new dresses for my little princess. I’m seriously so proud of myself. I’ve had the design idea in my head for a while now, so I sat down and drafted my own pattern and got sewing, and before I knew it, Mayana had two new dresses! I’m really happy with how they turned out, and I can’t wait to make some more! I’m thinking of maybe putting some up on Etsy or something…

  1. They are stunning. And if they were for sale, i would buy them both (but particularly the second one). My nieces would look fabulous in these.

    You're very clever!

  2. You are so clever! I definately think you should give etsy (or madeit - an australian version) a go!! Dresses like these sell for $30 - $40 easily!

  3. Love the second one in particular. Are they the same pattern (not all the pics loaded on our puter). You could think about selling the pattern too, I'm looking for baby dress patterns at the moment!
