Then funny me, I had to make pants to go along with the cute shirt. Once I get the basic knowledge of something I don't set any limits. So without a real pattern I'm making some ruffle jeans to go along, and I'm hoping they turn out and fit! I must admit, this jean material is quite a bit harder to work with and of course I don't do anything the simple way... probably cuz I don't know how. Ha! Oh well, its been a fun new experience and I think the outfit may make some pretty cute pictures when its all done... keeping my fingers crossed anyway.
So I need to hurry up and get these pants done today so our kitchen table can be used for eating and Kaelyn's crafts again. I'll be sure to share a finished picture of the outfit with you all sometime soon... or when we get a good photo of Kaelyn modeling it. :)

Wow! You are a super talented lady. I would love to see a pix of Kealyn in this cute outfit.
Aaah Jodi..I love this outfit! It's absolutely darling! You're doing a fabulous job for someone who doesn't consider themselves a seamstress. Your work looks professionally created to me! :)) Thank you so much for sharing today! It's always exciting to see what next Friday will bring. Have a wonderful weekend!

Cute!!! Jean fabric a.k.a. denim IS hard to work with!
Have a great day and don't forget to stop by my blog. I have an awesome giveaway this week!
<><
too cute ... can't wait to see the photos of your little girl wearing the completed outfit!
Awe...we just received a birthday invite next week...so I'm brainstorming what to make! I think a cute little outfit...skirt and shirt would be great. Now to get it done!
Oh, you are so brave! I've not really gotten the sewing bug. I don't have a sewing machine to start, but oh...I just don't know. It's something that I wish I just automatically knew how to do!
Wow! What a cute outfit! I can't believe you don't have that much sewing experience....and I love your blog! Now, if I could just get someone to come and make my blog look cute :x
Oh my goodness... that top is SO adorable and with the pants... CUTE! I can't wait to see Kaelyn modeling it. :) I admire those that can sew... I hope some day I learn. I love that you don't set limits for yourself. You go girl!! Thanks for sharing your project this week! :)
I love this outfit. Now I want to make one for my little girl too. I'm always amazed at how I always think things are more difficult than they really are once I try to do them. I feel this way about sewing. Once I started, I thought, if I had known it was this easy I would have started a long time ago. Remembering this helps me keep an open mind and be willing to try something new...because it probably isn't as difficult as I think. I'm glad you took a risk and made this adorable outfit! I look forward to seeing more of your sewing projects. It can be addictive:)

Good for you ... you tackled an outfit for your little girl. It just takes a little practice. Very cute outfit. Good job.
you're very brave! I know I'm not a sewer either...I have sewed a few things but not much. I think about things I'd like to sew a lot though...in fact I have a collection of vintage fabrics just because I couldn't pass them up and dream of making pillows etc...but they are still there in the closet. Bravo to you for doing it! The outfit looks so cute!
Thank you! It was definitely a fun project... since it turned out anyway! :)
A friend took pictures of K modeling it and I can't wait to see how they turned out!
