4th of July Toddler Jumper Dress & a Model Search Contest
I think Elizabeth looks adorable in jumper dresses, so of course I made her another one for her special July 4th outfit. I've made her about 5 dresses using this pattern which I picked up at You Can Make This (in case you'd like to take a look search for Pouty Princess Designs). When making this dress I usually alter the length so that the dress falls just above her knees, but this time I decided to follow the instructions exactly. I feel it is a bit too long so I'll be shortening it and adjusting the straps. Other than that I really like this pattern, it's quick and easy to make.
Now for the model search...Beyond Stitches is have a model search! She's looking for girls to model her absolutely adorable hair accessories. Check out her blog for details.
Next up something for Xavier...I'm thinking a patriotic t shirt for the upcoming holiday. What a busy week!

- Hello, I’m Rachel. I started sewing 9 months ago and fell in love with putting together unique clothes for my children to wear. Although I’ve focused mainly on clothes I’m trying to branch out into other crafts. This blog gives a peek into my current projects. Please feel to leave comments or email me questions or ideas at rachel@sewambitious.com. Thanks for visiting!

I like it but I'm with you, I think it's a bit too long.
good luck for your busy week! :)
Your girls are absolutely precious! And the jumper is really cute. You are really inspiring me with all the sewing. I have my old pair of jeans on my sewing table waiting for me to cut them and turn them into a skirt :-) They've been waiting for a while now :-)
Thank you so much for announcing the contest. You might think that with almost 600 fans and over 300 friends on my FB, I would've have more contestants by now. I don't know if it's because of the approaching holiday and everyone is out of town, but haven't heard from many people.
Rachel, it;s adorable LONG!!! I admit, I love it short, too, but it is not too long!
nice post!
You have some MAD sewing skills for not having been doing this for a year!! I'm just a seamstress wanna.be
The jumper is so cute *and your little model is even cuter* NFF
