Miss Pepper was invited to a pussy cat party yesterday.So after school drop off we came home and got to work on the present.
She helped choose the fabric and insisted on a pocket.
This time I made the top of the pocket by gathering it and then binding over the top.
But when it came to putting on her pussy cat outfit, she wanted to wear her pocket dress instead.
And I was pleased to see that it passed the party wear test with flying colours.
By the time we got home it was covered in face paint, berries and the pocket was filled with rocks...as all good party dresses should be.I hope you are having a great week.
Yes! Most essential that one has a rock receptacle about one's person at all times.
ReplyDeleteI so love it over the jeans. Too cute. With those little piggies too.
ReplyDeleteI am just lovin' all these cute little pockets...!
ReplyDeleteA pussycat party! What a lovely idea. Were there lots of little children cats lined up drinking milk out of bowls? My kids have all loved playing cats, very cute and funny. Did Pepper have an identity crisis? I thought she was a puppy? xo
ReplyDeleteShe is such a sweet looking pussy cat with the piggy tails. And I'm sure the birthday girl will love her dress, it's very pretty.:)
ReplyDeleteMiss Pepper is such a cutie pie with those piggy tails. I love the pocket dress over the jeans too, and all wee ones love pockets dont they!
ReplyDeleteof course!
ReplyDeletea rock hiding place, necessity.
Now that is completely adorable!
ReplyDeleteI learned the hard way about kids and rocks in pockets via the washing machine.
goodness... I'll have to have a pussy cat party now! I'm quite jealous :)
ReplyDeleteA pocket is so important- sounds like a great party1
ReplyDeleteGlad it stood up to all of that pussy cat play - what a fun party for little ones:)
ReplyDeleteOh, too sweet. Papper's dress fabric brings back memories for me.
ReplyDeleteThat dress makes me want to come and live at your house. And collect rocks and berries. And do my hair in Princess-Leia-Goes-Disco ponies. INSPIRING for my month of sewing - so nearly over, and with so little to show for it...
ReplyDeleteI love that dress on her, it seems so her! Good making Mama.
ReplyDeleteComing home with food on the face and rocks in the pocket is just what little girls should be doing!
ReplyDeleteMy two kids dressed up as cats for Halloween one year. That was fun.
It always amazes me how you put these little dresses together so quickly. I love your post about crochet. I love the pink crochet sleeves and your long crochet edgings. They would be great to sell they could make layers of frills on a bag.
ReplyDeleteAdele
I LOVE the fabrics, and the dresses are absolutely gorgeous. I thought I was the only one in Australia sewing.... At least kids clothes :)
ReplyDeletegeez I love these dresses you are making. and I am getting the sense that you just 'whip them up'. Nice one!! I like you criteria for a good party dress- no, it's not to sit politely and look 'pretty'!
