Smile # 26 and "Pillowcase" Dress Progress

It started as an idea. Trixie challenged me a few weeks ago with the idea of working on something positive. On my Feb yahoo group "Dawn" posted about 'pillowcase" dresses and .....

I was sold!

I then sent the idea to two friends who sent it to a few friends and so on and so on. (No this is not a Wella Shampoo commercial!)

There are now five of us involved in making fun and creative "pillowcase" dresses and I have been told that Cindy is the "pillowcase" dress expert.

This past weekend, Cindy gave the girls a free tutorial and am I green with envy!!!!Read more about the "pillowcase" dress tutorial at Trixie's blog

With any luck I will have mastered this project by the time we get together :) Only my best will go to the girls!



Can you believe I actually made this????

Well, I made it out of something? Leave it to all of you to guess exactly what.....

The smile I received fulfilled my need for instant gratification besides the fact my niece looks "really cute" in this little homemade number!!!!

A few completed dresses. Can you guess which were made with pilllowcases?
Here are a few works in progress. I ran out of time, serious weeding and gardening to do. Hopefully these projects will be completed by the weekend:)
