One Dress A Day for 365 Days for April 2013

After a disappointing March, I did my best to make up for it this month and here it is - 29 dresses and 3 pairs of shorts bringing my total as of today to 114 dresses out of a possible 120/120 days - One dress a day for 365 days, my journey in 2013. WooHoo!!!
These dresses wouldn't have been made possible without the generosity of the following donors:
Fabric Donations -
1) My mum Jolly
2) Monika Osvald Collection
3) Sash Hinton
4) Linda Smyth Collection
5) Meredith Cain 
6) Dress A Girl Australia

T-Shirt Donations -
1) Heyboom shop
2) Monika Osvald
3) Dress A Girl Australia

Thank you so much to everyone for their kindness and generosity. It is very much appreciated.

Back to one dress a day

After a silent night last night I am back to one dress a day and this is what I made for day 44.
Found more fabrics from my scrapbags which will make good hemlines to the pillowcase dresses I am making. For more on the one-dress a day campaign, please click here or click on the '365 days diary' tab  found at the top of the page.

Dresses from donated fabrics FY12 #5 - From Heyboom shop

Well, I did it again last night. I thought it was high time that I start making dresses from donated fabrics so this time are 3 dresses from HeyBoom Shop. 
Still have several to go from the mess below but starting to make them is a good sign. I also thought that if I start making them it will help clear a little section of the messy room I have. :-)
What I am doing is a first-in fabric donation first-out dress in my sewing schedule so for those who have donated fabrics lately, it will take a while for your dresses to be completed but they will all be done. The materials donated will be a big help in meeting my goal this year and perhaps in the new year.

Thank you HeyBoom shop!!
