Daughter's creations...

Here is a look at what went to fair this year for my Daughter's projects... 

Here is what was sewn this year...
This dress had 30+ pieces, took five days of sewing nearly 8 hours a day, 
and lots of Mom's (I am her sewing leader) direction (no tatting or other projects those 5 days for me)
as she sewed her first darts, lining, inter facings, pleats, and zipper...


In Artistic Clothing (Decorate Your Duds) she took two skirts and put them together to create 
the gorgeous skirt you see here...
We had seen a similar item in a Boutique in one of the mountain (tourist) communities near here.

The top is a t-shirt she embellished and ruched the sides and sleeves on...
she learned applique and a couple of different flower making techniques this year as well.


Her 3rd project this year is cake decorating, unit 5, which is cupcakes.  These are so gorgeous...I don't know that the pictures do them justice.  She used melted chocolate to create the butterflies...just beautiful!  She has had fun with this project this year...


Next up, we'll have to show you the outcome at fair...
