This last summer was a difficult one for me. For a long time I have been struggling with everything that needs to be taken care of. The kids, the home, work, other activities. I was extremely tired all summer and didn't really enjoy myself at all even though we all had 5 weeks off together. I felt guilty that I wasn't enjoying our time off and that made me even more tired and drained. I am doing much better now, thankfully these things pass, and now I can remember the summer with joy. Since crafting is a way for me to relax, I took the time to make 2 wonderful dresses despite my tiredness and stress level. I am really happy with them although sewing jersey proved a challenge. The patterns are from Citronille but I have modified them a bit. You can see the result below.
My beautiful daughter Elina loves dresses and these ones fit her perfectly.
I love the simplicity of these patterns. They are so beautiful and very... french somehow! The Albertine pattern has short sleeves instead and the Apolline was made into a dress. The fabric comes from Art Gallery Fabrics.
