A bit late in blogging about my sewing marathon 2 project but I have actually started making pillowcase dresses for a couple of days now. These are the first 5 dresses I have sewn so far (45 to go) and this is why I love handmades. I can be very creative and use my imagination to the best I can. They may look the same but each dress is unique and I believe that is what handmade is all about. No two items can be the same. The concept, yes they may be the same but not the actual result. (And note I seem to like the idea of making my images float.)
The idea of putting a pocket across the width of the dress is now starting to become a trademark design for Dress A Girl Australia and am loving the idea.
Come visit Dress A Girl Australia regularly for the next two weeks and keep track of where I am in my 'Me and my Sewing Machine marathon project #2 for the children of Uganda. Here is the link to the album where all pillowcases dresses made so far will be saved.
