very simple, very pretty

sometimes fabric is so pretty that you don’t need to do much to it. I think this has to be one of the prettiest fabrics ever and today I whipped this up….


simple bias binding ties and my machine whizzed through it all giving a much neater finish than my old machine ever would what with trimming and speed control to keep me in check. I can’t wait till little miss keira comes home from pre-school to find a new dress!


I’d made this dress before and its a real favourite!

  1. Very pretty!!!

  2. I just love that bias trim, it goes perfectly with that gorgeous fabric. It’s very cute!

  3. That is a beautiful dress and I am very jelous of your new sewing machine. It’s even pink!!

  4. I am glad to hear the new machine whizzes through the sewing so well. I am sure Miss Keira will absolutely love that dress when she arrives home, I can just imagine the squeals of delight!

  5. The dresses are gorgeous! lovely fabric and design x

  6. Just gorgeous – no doubt it will be another favourite with Miss K!

  7. Oh wow, that fabric is so gorgeously pretty. And your new machine sounds very sweet. The idea of electronics has always scared me a bit, buy your machine does sound super user friendly!!!

  8. Gorgeous dress – your new purchase is justified!! (well to me anyway). I have some stuff to sell on ebay – I’m doing a bit of a clear out – including two sewing machines – I hope they sell well!

  9. I’ve never seen a pink machine before. Gorgeous … but not as beautful as Keira’s new dress!

  10. Very beautiful fabric, I agree.

  11. Pretty dress for a pretty girl – love your fabric choice.

  12. It looks great – I cant believe that it is still warm enough up there to wear it – we are FREEZING here!

  13. Corrie, this dress is just too sweet. I love the fabric choice. Can you let us in on where you got it from. Is it vintage or new?
