My Creative Space - Little Blue Dress

make avatar


There are so many things I should have been doing this week, instead I made a dress. 

My Little One received some fabulous blue shoes for her birthday which reminded me of the fabulous blue and black striped jerseys I had in my stash... and I just started cutting and making it up as I went.



 Thankfully, she loves it. 
I think she must like a bit of asymmetrical wonk like me :)

If you want to dance along just channel Leo Sayer You Make Me Feel Like Dancing :)




Just in case you haven't heard the news... Kirsty (who has tirelessly hosted My Creative Space at her blog Kootoyoo for ages) has now discovered some new directions she'd like to explore. So, rather than drop things, she has kindly set up a new blog just for Thursday's crafty show-and-tell peeps... and it's called Our Creative Spaces. 
To see some more spaces or join in yourself, you can now find all the links here.
Thanks Kirsty!

    Hi Kylie,
    Those are some great shoes! And how lucky to have such a talented Mum to make you a funky dress to wear with them! The photo shoot looked like it must have been a lot of fun too.

    You're awesome with your by-the-seat-of-your-pants dresses! Of course she loves it--if she loves the shoes, she has to love the dress!

    That kid was made for that dress...or is it that the dress was made for that kid? Either way, she is so funky!

    There is nothing better than 'You Make Me Feel Like Dancing' - except, perhaps, this fab dress! I want one!

    VERY funky dress. You should do a tutorial/pattern for it (if you don't mind others having the same dress as your daughter). :) I am in awe of your talent.
