ALYOF - March Goal

A Lovely Year Of Finishes - March Goal

One of my year goals was to make "Zoey" a dress. I got the pattern from Pattern Member @ The Sewing Rabbit For $10 a month you get three patterns! I thought what a deal! One of the first patterns is a girl dress that usually sells for $6! Practically paid for itself this month! The dress is called The Madeline Dress by mesewcrazy1

I know the fabric is a little wild but I wanted to make a test dress before I cut into the beautiful yards I bought for her summer dresses! Working with directional fabric might be my undoing! I have it almost cut out all in the right direction. I think it will be quite a challenge!

I have two giveaways going on at In The Boon Docks!
Please stop by and enter!

1). Win Aurifil Thread Stitch On Prints

2) Win a $25 Gift Certificate for Pink Chalk Fabrics Think Ruffles Blog Hop

Thank you for stopping by!
Create and be unique!

    I'm sure that Zoey will be excited about that goal too. Have fun working with the directional print.

And the winner is ... #105 gpc March 5, 2014 at 12:13 PM I follow your blog! :) Think Ruffles Blog Hop Welcome to "In The Boon Docks" and Day 1 of the "Think Ruffles Blog Hop"! My name is Lisa and I am so happy you are here today to see my quilt with ruffles! I have to thank Madam Samm @ Sew We Quilt and Amy (Head Cheerleader)@ Sew Incredibly Crazy for arranging this great hop! What is a ruffle? There are lots of different kinds and Madam Samm left it open to interpretation. She showed us how to make some and at the time I was thinking; ruffled bloomers, ruffled dresses, ruffled pillows. Then I saw a quilt in a magazine with what looked like ruffles! I kind of browsed through the issue of Quilt-it today , March/April 2014 issue and left it in my rocking chair and went to work. The second time I read the "Garden Path" pattern by Ann Baxter, (I had already made the quilt), it read "ruching", you don'
