    Default I keep my 1947 FW busy... want to see?
    I just got back from NC for my last grandchild's HS graduation and my great-grandbaby had her 3rd birthday while I was there. I had made her a birthday dress with my 1947 FW and I thought I'd let you all see.... I just love sewing on it.... so much that I left the fancy Viking back at my son's house till the summer is over. .... I'm only using the FW here at the cabin and I don't think there's anything I won't be able to sew while I'm here.

    that is just the cutest little dress - love all the ruffles! I used to love sewing my daughter fancy dresses for her birthday - I still have them all hanging in her closet...waiting for a grand daughter now!

    Love the ruffle detail in the back! Both your granddaughter and the dress are pretty.

    Absolutely precious, both grandchild and dress. Who likes blue and purple?
