Flight Suit Dress

Every once in a while, I make something I'm really proud of. Yesterday, I finished making a dress from a flight suit for my niece, Lycie. My sister-in-law sent me a photo to use as inspiration, but I ended up creating a pattern and doing it my own way. I love it. I'm going to have to pull some of Beaver's old flight suits out and make one for Neely now. And the response to it has been so overwhelming, I may have to go ahead and start resizing my pattern so I can keep up with the demand! It's very exciting. Anyway, since I've talked it up so much...here she is!

  2. Wow you are so talented. I took sewing in High School but didn't do anything with it and I always wished I could sew more than a button on! Have a great day.

    1. Don't use your favorite shears. Flight suits wreak havoc on them! I think cutting them out is the worst part.
