After searching patterns, even borrowing a few from my good friend Carole, I found this one, <a href="https://weallsew.com/vintage-dress-by-simple-simon-company-for-weallsew/">Vintage Dress by Simple Simon & Company for WE ALL SEW</a>. I made one change in the construction, as seen here.<br />

The direction have you encase the inside seam allowance with Bias binding or Bias tape, I turned under the hem on the lining of the bodice 1/2 inch then top stitched from the right side. It turned out really clean and finished. The directions are very well written, easy to follow and best of all it was free.<br />

Don't they just look adorable? I also purchase cute little white short sleeve t-shirts from Kohl's as an option for them.<br />

"Stark Night" my entry for the <a href="http://www.badassquilterssociety.com/game-of-quilts-online-competition/">Game of Quilts</a>
competition being held at <a href="http://www.spoolquilt.com/">Spool</a> with the BadAss Quilters Society.
This is the Blood, Stone, Steel and Fire colorway using Peppered Cottons in Flame, Charcoal, Garnet and Fog. The Sword was created using Lesley Riley's image transfer paper TAP onto the Fog colored fabric and fused. Stitching was added to enhance details. The eyes were thread painted, the compass was fused. The background quilting in different directions is for the "Stark" children who never seem to find each other.<br />

This was the Mother of Dragons colorway using Peppered Cottons in Saffron, Emerald, Oyster and Carbon. The emerald and saffron fabrics are fused onto the carbon, thread painting was added in the eye, and I used a Shiva paint stick around the dragon scales to add depth.<br />

Steelman Triathlon at Nockamixon State Park our son Ben finished with the time of 1:34:28, 7th in
his age group, 122 overall of 422 finishers in the sprint division. Dan and I volunteered by anchoring a friends sailboat along the swim course, preceded by an evening "raft up" with fellow sail club members.

For Sean, my brothers son, the newest member of the family. Sean was born in Texas. I found this Texas fabric on line from <a href="http://www.stitchinheaven.com/">Stitchin' Heaven</a>, it was part of a collection for the 2013 state wide shop-hop. This quilt was made with 31 different blue fabrics, and a white jelly roll for the sashing.</div>

These really are the same pants, not sure why the color looks different. I removed the draw string below the knee, measured 8 inches in on the bottom hem starting at the outer seam. On the inseam I measures up 15 inches from the bottom hem, drew a line with a water erase marker to connect that point to my 8 inch in mark, sewed the seam, trimmed off the excess then ironed. The 5 minute Capri pants make-over!<br />

Magnolia, a paper pieced pattern by <a href="http://www.thedesignersworkshop.com/catalog.php?sec=5">The Designer's Workshop</a>. This was by far the most complex paper pieced project I have done. I really like this technique. I've also sewn several <a href="http://www.karenkstone.com/">Karen K. Stones </a>quilts as well as a few from <a href="http://www.quiltworx.com/">Judy Niemeyer.</a>Marlenehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11518698075275484026noreply@blogger.com3
