Next Quilt, Done

Finished! And only four months late. B suggested that next time perhaps I should start four months earlier. Right.

Bluebird Dress




This was a pretty simple project. We were given all the pieces in a kit, and the costume designer even posted a tutorial with step--by-step pictures on Facebook. The biggest challenge was fitting a size 5 to my size 6 daughter. Teeny tiny seams! The dress held up through both costume check rehearsal and full dress rehearsal, before splitting at the seam as soon as she walked in the door of the theater. Thankfully the Wardrobe Mistress had her sewing machine on site for quick repairs! We just had to throw her matching tulle wings on her and away she flew.
