The Fourth of July is one of my favorite holidays. One of my goals when I moved back to my parents with the kids was to take advantage of the time we'll be here (which is hopefully not too long)and start doing things I've always wanted to do. Learning to sew is one goal I started. Fourth of July is the perfect opportunity to make some really cute clothes for the kids. The dress wasn't hard, it was just frustrating having to redo things. Like when I sewed the skirt together so the back half was the wrong side out. Luckily nothing was too hard to fix. I sewed pleats, piping, a zipper, and shirred(I think that's what it's called)the bottom of the skirt, all for the first time. I can see the flaws but it was my first time so I'm really happy with it. The boys looked so dapper at church in their bow ties. Those took forever since I had to hand stitch them but they were so worth it!

Isabelle's tights were supposed to be leggings but they were a size too big. Still cute though!
