Swing Swing Smock
So a few days ago, I finished sewing my first piece of clothing. This little smock from Bend the Rules Sewing was the perfect first project. The bias binding was a little tough, but once I ripped it off a few times and realized what I was doing it started togo a little more smoothly.
The smock is a bit big on my daughter; she is a 3T, and this is more of a 4-5T I think, but the cotton might shrink with multiple washings (I preshrunk it, but I have little experience with this type of thing). I used Charm by Amy Butler fabric, and some generic bias tape. I am amazed I got any of this done, since I had been sick for most of June, and I have some sleep I need to catch up on. But it was fun! Now, back to those paintings...
Emily! It's beautiful! I can just see your daughter wearing it. We miss you guys!
