I also included a surprize in the package, but if you don't like it, don't use it...lol. I prewashed the material before cutting and sewing, and I washed the dress when it was completed, to make sure it stayed together and didn't shrink up or anything... no problems, (did cold water and a hand wash machine cycle, with a normal high speed spin), dryed it on delicate (low heat) and ironed it with some evironmentally safe spray starch. Also, I went back and added an iron on stabilizer as that fabric is a bit thinish, so that made it a bit studier. And it's lined with a pink silk/cotton blend lining, so it should not mat her hair too much, if at all!
Hehe! Now I'm on pins and needles waiting to see how it looks on her...lol!  |
Oh my gosh Kathy.......you did all of that...WOW! You are so very thorough...geez, that is alot of work! I'm so excited too....I just know it will be perfect. When I saw the picture, I said "there's my Zhoie girlie in her new dress" LOL
Oh, believe me....I'll be sharing pictures
