New Dress

This is the new dress I just finished for Ava. I'm sure you all are tired of seeing things that I make, but I'm learning how to sew and am really excited when I finish a project, so you'll have to suffer with me.

Thanks to my friend Merry and my Mom for helping me fix the dress. The original pattern has a v neck front and I was too scared to try it. As a result, it wouldn't fit over Ava's head when I finished it. I ended up cutting down the back and putting a hook and eye in. It looks pretty good though.
