I just wanted to share some of what I have done so far. I have tons but this is the most recent. I think I have the pattern to make pantiloons and the cover I will have to look because I think that is so sweet on little girls. The girl in the last picture is my daughter, she is 4 and thinks everything I sew is for her!! She loves that green dress because it is silky feeling. I am working on a pageant dress right now because I cant bring myself to spend $500+ dollars on a dress for a 4yo!!!??? It is white with pink hearts on the bodice and white organza with little white hearts on the skirt. I got the material for .50 a yard after valentines day. I love looking at what every one has done so please share!!

I have my dughter and a 3yo niece and I just got a new niece who is 3weeks today. I made her an awesome christening gown with yellow ribbon trim. I will get a picture up of her in it when she can wear it!! Right now she is just under 7lbs so she is still in premie stuff. Thanks so much Stephi Stephi

Adorable clothes. I especially love the last little black and white set. Too cute! Aren't little girls fun to sew for? I have 3 dd--- of course, 1 is a real tomboy now....  and I really enjoy sewing for them, and my 2 nieces.  Great job. Jen |

They really are!! I wanted a boy but now I want another girl!! I am working on matching dresses and a shirt in the hawiian print for all the nieces and one nephew. I need a picture I can break out when my daughter is old enough to date I forgot to put the best picture up http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g155/jasonstephi/IMG_1760.jpg She loves this dress eventhough it is a bit big on her right now. This was a hard material to work with, but it came out alright. Thanks STephi Stephi

Stephi, your daughter is so cute!! Love the clothes you made her too. I vote for the black and white also but I also really like the red dress with matching bows & purse. Great job! Lucky little girl! Thanks for sharing.

| I also like the black/white. What a little sweetheart your daughter is standing there with her little rosey cheeks and her hands folded so prim and proper. She is adorable. |

| Darling little DD! I loved sewing for my 3 girls. Luckily the 4 boys did not expect me to make jeans and shirts! I did all the girls wedding dresses, maternity dresses, 15 grandchildren's baby clothes and I am making some quilts now and tomorrow I am making my 2-yr-old GD a pillowcase dress out of a very old and quite fancy pillowcase. She came calling on me the other afternoon, knocked on my door (I am in a ground floor apt. at my son's house and when I opened it, there she stood, smiling, with her pink straw handbag over one arm! She is such a little doll! My front door is across an open breezeway-parking place from the main house side door. MariLynntex |

Steph, The clothes are so cute as well as your little girl. When my DD (now almost 18) was little, both grandmas and an aunt sewed for her as I was employed full-time. Now, that I'm retired I sew some for her but she likes to sew her own clothing. I like to sew my clothing and do a lot of community service sewing. Just finished 28 adult bibs for a nursing home. Right now I'm working on some Easter dresses for an inner city school. Then it will be on to DD's Easter dress who always likes for Mom to make it. Happy Stitching!

Thanks ALL!! I actually sold the polka dot outfit because I had a made matching dresses for my daughter and niece so I made that out fit to use up the rest of the material. I have been trying to use up material rather than tucking it away and keeping it forever!! I have actually made some pretty cute stuff with just leftovers! Anyways I listed several dresses on ebay and that outfit was the only one that sold??!! Thanks again all!! Stephi
