Naomi's Dress

After making a nursing shawl for a friend, I looked at the extra fabric, and thought, "I bet I can make a dress for Naomi out of this."  And so the challenge began.  I had made a similar dress for my niece to wear to our wedding--almost 6 years ago!  But I had some idea of what I was getting myself into.  I added a few embellishments, like some decorative stitching and the ribbon tie.  (Oh, and it did only take a day, but it took the whole day and I got nothing else done that day!)
The front.  Isn't this model, just precious?
The back
And another of the cute model.

You are so talented, Julie! The dress is adorable...as is the little subject wearing it :) Wish you lived closer so you could teach me a thing or two about sewing...

(Don't tell my mother I just admitted that).

God bless!
