Easy Pillowcase Dress

The last couple of days I have been working on a pillowcase dress for our flea market booth.  Though, my daughter saw me working on it & excitedly asked me, "Is that for me?!"  Now, I'm debating if I should give it to her now & make another one for the booth.

I followed the instructions that I found on Everyday Chaos.  On her blog, the pattern was for a nightgown, but I decided to make it a regular dress instead.  Here is a picture of the two she did:

I made my dress a little different.

I made my ruffle a little longer at the bottom, but it basically the same.  I plan to make this dress again.  It was super easy & fun to sew.  What are you working on?  Would love to see pictures & post them here.  Just email me.

The Tent is Up!

Sweet joy, the tent is finally up!

This is a pretty late Christmas present for Katie, but at least I finished.

 I am not a seamstress by any means, but I really wanted her to have a great tent that matched her room and wasn't hundreds of dollars.  So, here's what I could do and thankfully, she loves it.  Yay!!!

How we hung it.  Sewed a metal ring into top of tent & strung a ribbon threw it.  Tied that to this mini carabiner which we connected to a screw eye hook; which is anchored into a stud.
