look what i made

my friend kelsey has been on a sewing kick 
which has inspired me
so this is what i've made

another pillowcase dress for hazel
i based it on a little 18 month old navy dress
so hopefully that's when it fits her
and......

my new favorite bag

 i'm happy it was free
and proud that i made it

i have been looking for a replacement bag
ever since i sold this one
who knew i could make it
without a pattern
and with old fabric my mom gave me

Sorry - I stopped by to check out your blog - and I LOVE the bag :D Awesome color - and the ruffles are fantastic! And of course I always love a no cost project! You've inspired me - I think I'm going to try and make a bag :D LOVE it! And the dress! I bought some pillow cases from Goodwill a while ago, and I'm going to turn them into a dress for me! Hopefully it'll work :) Okay - enough of my blabbering. But seriously - love the bag!

That is sooooo cute, how did you make it? What kind of fabric is it made out of? Can you teach me how to do it? =)

You are so talented! I was wondering what you were doing yesterday and now I know. I love both pieces you made. Where did you get the material? (I know where Hazel's dress came from).

Super cute purse. LOVE the ruffles. I am really into ruffles lately. And the dress is amazing.

I love all the things you make! They're great. I like how the yellow bag looks like the top of a cool prom dress in the first picture with the straps.
