A dress for Mia

Here's Mia in another sample dress I made a few years ago. It's funny, when I made this dress, I didn't like it at first. I actually wasn't even going to put it in my line. At the last minute (literally), I added it to the selection at my trade show at my mom's request. And guess what. It was my best seller! Of course, that helped me see this dress in a different way. But now seeing Mia run around in it, it's one of my all-time favorites.

I made a trip to the garment district today to buy white twill for a slipcover I need to make. I also found a great linen at a fantastic price ($6.50/yard!) for an embroidery project. I'm looking forward to getting into the swing of things. First project though... clearing out my sewing area. argh.
