I had prayed for a little granddaughter to sew for ever since my own kids grew up. Then a year after Shelby was born, I found out I had tongue cancer, and I had that dreadful surgery. So I lost out on several months of sewing. About the time I really got started back, I had to have shoulder surgery. Another setback...Plus it didn't help, and I still have problems with that shoulder. I can only raise my left arm to a certain point.
I'm not one to give up, and I was determined to keep sewing, and I have. It's not always comfortable, but I manage. It's my joy and my thereapy!
I bought this pink pique poodle fabric when Shelby was a baby, and I'd always intended to use the Children's Corner Callie pattern so that's exactly what I did!

The lovelies call my mom Mimi and she sewed for them from the day the first one was born. They had matching outfits on all holidays; she made their prom dresses; and Breezy's wedding gown! The lovelies enjoy designing their dresses and Mimi makes them. It's been one of the most memorable things for them all! So we know how absolutely wonderful this is!
There you go, creating a masterpiece. I adore the outfit and the one wearing it...she sure does too, LOOK at that smile!
So glad you got to get back to what you love and look what you created! So special. You can tell she just loves it.
Shelby is such a blessed little girl to have a precious Mimi to sew for her!!! Ms. Shirley, you do such an amazing job!!!
This is just DARLING, Shirley! Shelby looks so proud of her new outfit...♥ the shoes, too. LOL
GREAT job!
Hugs,
