Exhale!

Well I finally did it.  I completed all the dress samples for my MuxiMaus line.  We had an awesome time taking the photos for my website!  I am a bit concerned that I will have "zoolander" face in all the pictures.  Cross your fingers.  I saw two of the pictures already and they were really good. Melissa, Stella, Simone and Juliet made excellent models and Cynthia Lawrence from Mau Loa Photography was fabulous. Now I take a small break.  I really want to make a hat to go with the dresses so I bought 2 patterns from Etsy.  The first one from Poppy and Lola  was not so good.  The pattern and directions were very vague and there was an error in the pattern that cost me a 1/4 yard of fabric and I still ended up without a hat.  They did email me right away with help and offered to give me a refund which I will be taking them up on!  The second pattern I got was from Indietutes for a bush hat.  This hat pattern was much better! The hat came out adorable although Juliet is asleep so I haven't tried it on her yet. I think she'll love it! Now I want to come up with a really cute flower.
