Default Another picture added to A dress for oldest dd

Finally got to work on something with my machines! I tried some new techniques- (used a Hanna Anderson It's a Day Dress/It's a Play Dress for a pattern)... using elastic to gather and a piece of fabric for a neck ribbing... not the results I wanted totally, but she loves it and is comfy in it so that's what matters to me - and my friend didn't know I made it and thought it was cute- so I guess I did ok! The inside is a MESS as I realized I don't have any serger thread in red or navy, so I used white. Thankfully no one else sees the inside.

The dress came out really pretty! Who cares about the inside. I have those items that I have sewn that look great on the inside and horrible on the inside. Wonder why that is . My mother and sister also sew and one time I made a dress or pants (can't remember the actual item) and my sister turned it inside out to check it out. Of course it was one of the inside is a mess items. I was burning inside. First I am thinking, "Looking for something wrong?" It really upset me but I didn't say anything. I am not looking for perfection. Well, I probably am but....

Can you take a picture of it on a hanger or closer up with her arms down?
That's a great job!

Oh your little ones are so adorable! The pics looks great, kids should be seen as themselves, not little statues I think. You did a great job on the dress, as long as she likes it and it fits then who cares what the inside looks like.

You are so blessed.
