Fabulous Fabric

I made the most adorable dress with this wonderful fabric I got a few weeks ago online.  I've been wanting to make something with it and last night was a good night to pull it out.  I secretly wished I could come up with something for me to wear so that I could make myself something, but peasant dresses like I make would look like a muu muu on me instead of a presh little dress like it does on little girls.  So I made this little number, size 2T:

The fabric is really high quality and super soft and lovely.  I think I have enough to make myself a cute little apron to wear.  I have to keep some of this for myself.  It's so earthy and natural and beautiful and I want it for ME!

I was talking to my sister the other day about how I photograph my items.  I just don't have any creative ways to do it.  It namely boils down to the fact that I have a real daytime job that takes up 40 hours of my week, so by the time I get home, sew, and take photos, the only option I really have is to throw it on a hanger and hang it on the doors in our apartment.  I really need to come up with a cute and clever way to display the items so that the photographs are just as beautiful as the items I make.  Maybe I'll find some time to brainstorm in the next few weeks.  Or maybe after Wavefest.  I'm just too busy right now.  What I really need is a cute, small child to model for me.  I wish my niece lived closer!

Hope y'all have a happy hump day!  Just one more day of "real" work after today and I'm jetting off to the Buckeye State to see my fabulous friends and family that I miss so much.
