make your own dress

Alright so I try to start a blog to help release my stress and guess what? I erased the entire page I had almost completed! All I hit was one button and "poof" the magical computer monster ATE my page. that was all it took, one little keystroke and it disappeared never to be seen again.
SIGH
oh well
SOOOO... guess what I made?
done guessing?
A cute little dress :)
I made it from scratch. The pattern and everything!
I got the idea off another site... lets see if i can link it because it is so cool.
I don't have a surger although I really, REALLY want one ( I am determined to get one eventually), sorry got off track I tend to do that once in a while LOL
so or should i say sew? back to the surger I hate having raw edges and them fraying so I used a french seam on all my seams (accept the sleeves I couldn't do them right because they are so small and had to pick the seam out 4 times... not fun) below is a site that shows you how to make them. I was so excited to learn it that I had to share.
I love how it holds the seam in a seam and prevents it from fraying. Although I think the waist is a bit bulky on the inside from it I really didn't want it unravelling on me.
