A New Pattern, A Sincere Thank You, and a Giveaway

A New Pattern:Our friend Andrea from over at The Train to Crazy will be starting a blog tour in July to show off her new "Go-To Dress" pattern for girls of all sizes and we were lucky enough to get a sneak peak at the pattern! I made Grace the knee length version with the flutter sleeves...she loved it...and since I made it with silky, stretchy vintage fabric she thinks it is a "dancing dress" (hence the leg warmers).And while I'm glad she is happy with it, when we took the pictures of it she ...
