This dress was a sewing experiment for sure!
I made this dress last night. I had a halter top shirt of Aidalyn’s that I like the idea of for a dress… but I was too cheap to buy a pattern. So I used my minimal sewing expertise and drafted a pattern from the shirt I already had. I measured Aidalyn so I knew what diameter I would need the dress to fit. I used my serger and regular sewing machine.
It honestly isn’t perfect, but for me just messing around on my sewing machine without a pattern, I think it turned out pretty good. 
Aidalyn wasn’t in the mood for poses last night, so this is the view of the back. She is wearing just a simple onesie underneath it for colder nights.
What are your sewing experiments?
I feel like motherhood was the most amazing thing that ever happened to me… but I had to discover how to not lose myself in the process.
Sound familiar?
I teach busy moms how to make simple healthy swaps that make a huge impact on their health and results.

Cute! I tried sewing once. I sewed our curtains. I found it to be too tedious for my liking. I wish that wasn’t the case. Good for you!
Thanks – I am such a perfectionist… so it is hard for me to sew because it is never perfect… But I enjoyed making this!
