DRESSES AND CLOUDS

 I was shuffling through my patterns trying to decide on something to make for myself and it happened again, I made this little dress for Ella instead.  Ever since she claimed this fabric and requested a dress from it, I have been trying to decide if I should make a little summery sleeveless dress or more of this style vintage dress.
 Vintage won.  
The fabric is definitely vintage.  I think it is polyester.  It's kind of hard to tell in the pictures, but it is a little heavier fabric...probably not the best for a summery sleeveless dress.  I'm hoping she can start wearing it soon on cool spring days with a little cardigan.  

On a non-sewing note, the clouds today after the rain were pretty amazing.
 I had to pull over and take a couple.



More pretty ones later in the day.  
I LOVE CLOUDS!!
