My mermaid






Josie pretends to be a mermaid all the live long day. All the costume fabric at Joann's was 60% off, so for her birthday I decided to surprise her with a mermaid get-up. It was soooo much fun to make and I honestly feel like I've found my real passion in sewing....pattern making. Just having an idea in my head and working it out is my favorite thing and so gratifying. This one was easy - the only tricky part was not being able to try it on her while in the process, since it was a surprise!

  1. Linds, this is so cute....maybe you should go back to school for your 3rd degree in fashion design. That's so you:) Also, read up on freezer paper and I don't know if I should even start into that. It looks like the most addicting thing in the whole world.
