Krista was at Old Navy this week and found some dresses that she LOVED for Hailey and Aida for Easter. They didn't have matching ones in both girls sizes and they were actually more money than she wanted to spend, but she bought a few of them anyway. This is one of the ones she bought, that she really liked. After she got home and looked at the dresses, she thought maybe she could save some money by making them, since they were pretty simple.
Krista came over this afternoon and before we tried the pattern out on real fabric, we decided to go to my closet and try it on some scrap fabric I had.
All finished! It turned out pretty cute, we were really happy with our practice dress. It really was pretty simple, it has ribbon for straps, and she made a darling flower like the original one had. She is amazing!!!
Here's Hailey in her new dress! It fit her so cute, we were really excited and can't wait to go get the fabric to make an Easter one for her and Aida. (From the look on her face, I'm not so sure she thinks it is as cute as we think it is)
