Petite Button Dress Swap - Due June 1st UPDATE

[Honey]

Would anyone like to participate in a petite button dress swap? I've posted some photos of ones that I've seen online.

We would each make one dress to send to someone. These look so darling that I hope some of you are willing to try! They are made of felt.

I thought we could have them due by June 1st.

I bet you can do it either way Cheryl.

I am going to sign on for this one also. Boy You all have to stop coming up with such nifty projects - at least for a while.

[Honey]

The original ones were 2 pieces of felt sewn - and probably slightly stuffed. But I agree that I think we can just cut the felt dress out and then decorate as we are inspired to do so. I'm not so sure anyone wants to receive one of my hand sewn "goodies".


Oh, if anyone knows where to get those cute hangers, let me know. I don't think they are a requirement, I just think they look cute.

[ChristyB]

I've seen them around. Just have to think of where

[Holly]

I just knew you'd do this, when I saw them. I'm glad to join.

I think I got some ages and ages ago at one of the craft chains just need to see where they are hidden. I was thinking you could also use tiny clothes pins like the dress is on the clothes line.

Good idea Cheryl
I can see a mini clothesline on the wall with 4 or 5 of these hanging off.

These are so precious...but I don't sew and I know you all don't want something hand sewn by me so I'll pass on this...but perhaps just use paper etc and make a couple just for fun. BTW...get out some craft wire and make the hangers.

[ChristyB]

you don't have to sew them Julie

[Holly]

Heck no-- I'm thinking fabric glue would work as well, and the edges aren't finished. No need to with felt.
