It must be SPRING!
You know when you are just in an etsy browsing mood! Well the other night I was just searching all over etsy just soaking in the creativity there, and I was amazed at how many pillowcase dresses were for sale. But seriously it is the spring and EVERY little girl needs a pillow case dress. This one pictured is one of my first pillowcase dresses that I made almost a year ago, using this tutorial. I could not believe how simple this dress was to make! It is great for beginners. I loved this tutorial because of the elastic in the neck, rther then a draw string. I just feel safer with elastic rather then a draw string!!??!! Maybe I am weird! Anyways a pillowcase dress is the perfect spring/summer dress, so go get sewing!! The ruffle pants under this dress was made from an old pajama bottom pattern I had and I just added a ruffle to the bottom of each leg.

question: I'm thinking of purchasing a sewing machine. Nothing fancy...any recommendations? What do you use? Oddly, I just blogged today about wanting to buy a sewing machine and wanting to make pillowcase dresses!
I use a kenmore and oddly my hubby bought mine for $20.00 at an estate sale! I LOVE IT!! It is seriosly so nice I don't know that i'll ever trade it! My old machine raddled and shook eerytime I sewed so this was a big upgrade for me! I don't know help her out ladies what do you use??
So cute! Pillowcase dresses were the first thing I sewed for my girls :)
