A+ dresses



I’ve decided to take Penelope’s advice and take on a project that would force me to learn something new. I have always wanted to sew clothes for my children but have only dabbled here and there. Since I have four (count them!) daughters, a friend at church chastised me for not using my skills machine to save money on clothing. With those two pushes, I’ve decided to take on this lovely book: Absolutely A-Line: 1 Easy Pattern = 26 Adorable Dresses for Girls. Since there are 26 ideas in this book, my goal is to make a new dress every other week. Given my current track record, that may not happen. But let’s give it a college try.
