KCW: 5 & 6

No finished item to show for these last two days.

I bought the Oliver + S Jump Rope dress pattern a couple of years ago, planning on making it for Hazel.  It hasn't happened, until now.

I traced the pattern and cut out the fabric a couple of week ago, just waiting for this last week of kids sewing.  Maybe I should have spent the whole week working on this one dress?  But I really wanted more than one item to show for a week's worth of sewing.  So it's not finished.


I guess I forgot to take a picture of my progress after my first day of working on it.  But truthfully it wouldn't have looked much different than this one.

The first two steps you work on the placket and the collar.  I'm thinking the rest of the dress will come together a but quicker, and I'm sure the second one would go faster too, but, this is where we are at the end of this sewing week.  I'll be sure to post pictures when it's all finished.



All in all it was such a great week.  Can't wait to finish this dress.  Can't wait for the next KCW.
