My 1st Baby Dress (Day 25)

Ryan's mummy posted a blog.. so I kpo

Manz, I was hooked... not the entries but the dresses this mummy made for her beautiful daughters. I was like I want to do this too! But the problem was that the last time I actually made a dress was in Home Economics during Sec 1 or 2. How was I supposed to sew up a dress with my pathetic sewing skills? So I procrastinated...

Then came the D day, mainly because I can't find nice, cheap dresses in Singapore and the online purchases take donkey years to arrive, by the time I lose all interest. *sigh* So came that day, moved my ass to Spotlight and got all the things I wanted, came back to my parents place and "proposed" my idea to Grandma Clara. (I needed her help, her sewing machine, her expertise)

So we spent one day fixing the draw outs, cutting the cloth... through trial and error, we managed to do our 1st Baby Dress.... It may look like a easy design but was actually quite difficult to do as we were quite rusty. The dress was very tiny and needed intricate sewing skills which I lacked, so Grandma Clara had to sew the difficult parts for me, which was tough for her too... But we totally heart the dress when we completed it!

Grandma Clara suggested a 3 buttons back instead of a zip.. so that BB [V] can crawl easier without her legs getting caught in her dress...

I totally love this idea of making her clothes, so my little princess gets even more unique than she already is!

Next ... matching panties... woohoo! it gets addictive you know...
