I made this dress for Nora today, after my daughter picked Gus up. She had her first PT appointment this morning, for her knee. <br /><br />

This pic was when the dress was not completely finished and we text it to her mom, to ask about the length. We kept this length, but I had to sew a 3 inch piece on the bottom and turn up for the hem, so we wouldn't lose any of the length. It is finished now, but haven't put it back on her, to take another pic. It was some cheap fabric that I had a lot of and made two more of those stow away bags out of this too.

Hi Maria, if you look at Toogie's previous post you can see that she got it from http://liz-moments.blogspot.com/search?q=stow+away+bag. If this url here doesn't work just go to her post about the Stowaway bag. Love Chris

What a beautiful dress and cute model. I love your stowaway bags too. I always have a couple in my handbag, just in case. Love Chris

Nora says they look like a wallet and I guess they do when they're closed up. The dress is simple but will be cool for the days ahead.

Marian the fabric looks like paint splatter to me. If she gets a stain it shouldn't show- lol

When she comes to sleep, Papa loses his place in our bed. He sleeps in this room but she was on the side that was folded back, watching a VCR tape. That is the only room left with a working VCR machine.
