New spring wardrobe

Gabrielle has become my sewing muse, allowing me to practice sewing on a smaller scale, butchering less fabric than I would have if I was making full-size clothes for myself. So far, I'm learning that there's a reason people buy cheap clothes made in China - making clothes is totally not worth it. It's hard work, expensive, and hard work. Plus who can figure out the sizing? I obviously can't. Gabrielle will be able to wear these dresses right through to elementary school graduation, from the looks of things. But she loves them, so I'm happy to keep churning these things out.



The one below may look familiar to you hockey fans out there. Don Cherry has a jacket made out of the same fabric.
