In fact, your comment made me laugh because I thought the same thing when I saw your post of how you did it! :)<br /><br />I will tell you that the video clip of Heather Ross on The Martha Stewart Show really helped me feel confident in taking on this tutorial. The only tricky part is getting the tension right with the elastic thread being on the bobbin. Once you find your sweet spot, you're golden! It's a lot of ironing to make sure the hems are even, but I was surprised at how simple it was. Now if I can just get over my fear of puncturing another finger, I'll get back to my machine and make another one!sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12211464557130638956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-682886417448109328.post-66586957759376666552010-04-11T00:55:32.379-04:002010-04-11T00:55:32.379-04:00Great job with the dress.

I definitely want to keep trying with this sewing business and see what else I can make--now I will just have to do two of everything! <br /><br />Uh Jenn, did you see the part about the horrid self-injury? I am no expert and most of the time have no idea what I'm doing, believe me! You could totally do this stuff--I seem to remember a post you did with tons of cute things you made for Sadie's birthday. You're a crafty mama too!!!sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12211464557130638956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-682886417448109328.post-81513363853576407202010-04-08T10:14:28.824-04:002010-04-08T10:14:28.824-04:00This dress says several things: adorability and mo...This dress says several things: adorability and mommy perseverance.
