Mother daughter sparkle...


I finally finished sewing the Simplicity 3514 Hannah Montana pattern that my youngest daughter chose a few years ago while she was a child.


Now that she is a teenager I made view D but I made it into a dress by adding 4 inches to the middle section.  The sleeves were difficult & the pattern instructions made no sense to me.  So I made them without the lining & then it came together easy.  I think maybe I cut out the sleeves wrong.  Her favorite part of this dress is the sleeves!


I like how the back drapes with this sequin fabric.


On the front bodice I had to add another panel because I cut out a size 12 according to her measurements & it was way too big.


With the left overs of this expensive fabric I made myself a bias cut skirt from my own pattern.  Sadly I did not finish her dress for New Years but recently we have both been invited to a local Fashion Show so we get to wear our outfits then.

Sew you later!

Friday Fabulousness......Mother Daughter.....


a skirt & dress......


I used a simple shift pattern for her dress......with pink bias tape for the edges.........


for my skirt I used New Look 6571 & I added in seam pockets........our sunflowers bloomed late this year because of the cooler weather.......


mini-me picked out this bold hot pink fabric & the patterns..............


I am enjoying these mother daughter outfits because I so know it will not last..........so until then.... it truly is  Friday Fabulousness!
