Another Project for Myself...I'm seeing a pattern here!

After I made my first 
shirred dress for my sister (below) I wanted to try to make myself one.

I found a 
paisley knit and created a shirred summer dress. 
I LOVE IT! It's 
comfortable, 
airy, 
perfect for chasing little babies around the house and I 
didn't need a pattern. I don't know how to use patterns, so I just 
measure, cut and 
go with it. I'm just glad it worked! 
Oh - and my sister and I aren't twins :)

Gotta' love the shirring, don't we? It's like miracle sewing. lol
Super cute! I just tried shirring for the first time on a dress and I totally love it. Totally comfy for summer heat.

Those are adorable! I've been dying to sewing something with shirring, and I think I just found my excuse! That's funny that you mentioned that you and your sister aren't twins, me and my sister's always get asked if we're twins too :).
