☆Sailor mini skirt☆
For this, I wanted to show the uniqueness of the print, so I decided to go for a simple pattern.
Pockets on the side, and the sash comes from the side as well, which can be tied both front and back. Elastic waist - I love elastic waist! So easy and comfy to put on. And again, my sister criticized my creation and said it looks like an apron. I'm slowly getting used to her insults:p

☆Sailor dress☆I really like the two tone + cross over details, and will be making more dresses like this with different fabric combination!
Dear fellow sewers, any of you participating the Coats & Clark Pink & Red fashion contest? I'd love to enter, but I can't come up with any good combination of red and pink. Those are the colors that I tend to combine with... I'm kind of stuck and the time is running out. ;(Some sewing & knitting tutorials to share:
* Great tutorial of crochet hat from Vallieskids. Love the bow on the side.
* Head band tutorial from UCreate. An awesome way to use left over fabrics!

In case you missed out on this, the contest rules also call for thread as element to your design.
Quote: "You must use thread as a design element in the garment. For example—decorative stitching, embroidery, thread painting, topstitching—be creative!"
Good luck!
I love how you did the top part of the dress. very pretty!
I would love to enter the contest, but neither of pink or red is my color,,, so I kind of got stuck there... :(
I wanted to enter the contest and even prepared some designs, but am somewhat uninspired. No fabric funds anyway.
I think this skirt is absolutely precious! The bow accent is marvelous and any skirts with pockets are A OK in my book :D
Don't worry about your sister ;)
>SH, yea i knew i could incorporate the color as a thread:) thanks for the input though!

Hello there,
Nice blog! Just came across it...
Please come and check out my page too!
I hope to see you soon.
Love the sailor skirt! And thanks for the link to the headband tutorial-- what a great idea to use a hair tie for the elastic! Why didn't I think of that? :)
That sailor dress is the cutest!
