wow! good job!

how long did it take you to make the dress for your baby?

Thank you all for your nice comments about Bella's dress. The pattern was the most difficult thing, because I had to make it. It was sort of trial and error. I measured her, and sort of sketched it out on paper....and then cut it out to see how it fit....many times, each time shortening here and lengthening there, until it was just right. After I got the pattern down it didn't take but a few hours to cut out the dress and lining, and sew it up. I'd say about 3 1/2 hours. The only bad thing is....that's 3 1/2 hours I could have been cuddling my Bella!

I am sooooo impressed!!!! Thought sewing was a lost art. Making your own patterns is amazing. Your little Bella is sure a petite darling Yorkie. Soooooo cute. The little dress is adorable. Joanne
