For her birthday.

I've been meaning to do this post for the past couple of weeks. For some reason I have been lacking in blogging motivation. I'll try and do better. I like remembering the little things :)


Anyone who knows Trinity knows that she is LOVES the "The Wizard of OZ" almost more than anything else. My Mother-in-law found Trinity a Dorothy dress up/costume at a yard sale, and Trinity loved it! Unfortunately, the dress was about 2 sizes to small. So after a few days of Trin wearing the dress I took matters into my own hands.

Literally.


I decided that I would SEW one for her so she could have it for her birthday!

I all went pretty smoothly, but there is no way that I could have done it if my mom wasn't there to ask questions to every five minutes.


She loved it!

In our house, the quality of a dress is determined by how well the dress spins!

She was so excited she had to call Grandma and tell her all about her new dress.

With her birthday money she even got a really fancy "Dorothy" barbie dolls that sings a part of Over the Rainbow and everything.


I have only made a few meager attempts with a sewing machine. And this, I'm hoping is the beginning of a life long relationship with sewing. :)

So... I can sew!
