Pillowcase dresses

I've really been wanting to get back into sewing again here lately and even though pillowcase dresses really don't require much sewing at all I thought this would be a good way for me to ease back into it until I can get back on my feet. Since I don't have any really cute pillowcases and I need to refresh my memory, I thought I would just start by making a pillowcase first and then starting from there. I went to Hancock fabrics yesterday and picked out a few fabrics. Even though they didn't quite have what I was looking for, I think these will make cute summer dresses for Jaycelyn when I am finished. Here is what I got..


with yellow ribbon...

with hot pink ribbon...

and with white ribbon...

The pictures are not of the best quality because these are much brighter in person.

If you're not familiar with what a pillowcase dress is or you would like to make one, the link below has 6 simple steps to get you started.


I plan to update frequently while making these and will hopefully show you a finished dress very soon :)

Crazy life, Crazy Momma...

So basically I am just like any other average crazy woman (wanting to rip her hair out most of the time) that works very hard to balance out a very busy life being a full time wife and mother and also working a part time job. I do love every minute of it though and God has blessed my family in so many ways that I sometimes forget to praise him for what I do have. He has blessed me with an amazing husband Jason...


A beautiful daughter, Jaycelyn.....


and a handsome little man, Noah....
