Having 4 granddaughters presents a bit of a dilemma. As I wrote a bit ago I have decided to try making Pillowcase Dresses. Well, when you have so many granddaughters it is difficult to make something like that without making multiples! This presents a dilemma because when Olivia saw the first pillowcase dress she immediately claimed it…she called me a few days after I showed it to her and her mother and she said to me “grandma, do you have my dress finished?” Well, what can I do???? So I guess dress # 1 is Olivia’s. Then there is Brenna….she is the same size a Olivia and I so wanted to try the dress (Olivia’s) on Brenna last weekend to see how it actually looks on a child, but if I did that then Brenna would claim the same dress. And the last thing I want is MORE competition between two 5 year old girls! So now I have spent days trying to get the embroidery machine working as I know the mothers of my other 2 granddaughters want a dress for their girls too! I now have finished dress # 2, but it as I said took days to make as the issue of thread breaking caused me to spend hours trying to get the embroidery to work. Here is a picture of that dress:
This dress is the one that I had trouble with the green thread. I think it came out nice in spite of all the frustration. Once I get all the dresses done for the granddaughters then I can make one to put in my etsy store!
