mini polo dress for toddler
My cousin movd out recently and left a few polo shirts behind...they were really nice brands and I wanted to rework them into mini dress's for a little girl I know... The same concept as my strawbery costume but on a smaller scale...I love how it turned out. I'm also going to dye it to a girly color. Mabie lavender? Or orange?

strawberry girl costume
So I loved this strawberry girl costume I found online but I couldn’t find any store that carried it....sooooo I made one!! I went to a thrift store and found a 3xl men’s red polo shirt. I cut the shoulders off and used bias binding to finish the top edge. I loved the collar so I made sure to incorporate that in the design. I took the side seams in a little and put some princess line darts in the back to give it some shape. I made this supper cute hairpiece to go with it. I hope you like it!

So my best friend talked me into going with her into San Francisco to a Spat making demo at a museum. It was super fun but I finished my spats, ( which I gave to my friend to wear because I never would!! ), way before my friend and I could not help myself and had to do something with all the unused pieces that the demo providers were going to throw away! So I made this little Clutch purse. There are 3 different patterns of oilcloth used. It’s lined with foamy in black glitter which was not such a great idea, however the liner makes it hold its shape very well. Its supper cute and everyone loves it!
