Creative Envy

Since the gifts have now been gifted, I can finally share the finished products. I decided my oldest three nieces were in desperate need of some updated (bigger) aprons since they were outgrowing the old ones I made them years ago. I had so much fun picking out the fabrics and stitching these together. Well, minus some minor (okay, major) frustrations involving double-fold bias tape. All fabrics compliments of Sew to Speak in Clintonville. That store is dangerous for me. Paradise.

{I used Simplicty’s 2492.}

Since I recently made my littlest niece her own apron, I made her this little dress out of Kokka’s darling Snow White print.

I am absolutely in love with this fabric. It’s so timeless and pays tribute to the Disney classic without it looking too “Disney-fied”. {This one is  Simplicity’s 2711.}

I also gave them all gift certificates for a “Craft Day with Aunt Carrie” in 2010. Gotta start brainstorming for that one. Have any fun ideas?
