Ottobre ties . . .

I finished up the ties for the ringbearers for the wedding next month. It also happens to be my first try at an Ottobre pattern (I just got my first issue this month). Although I did make them twice, the first time with interfacing and they were way too stiff so I redid them without and they turned out much better. Hopefully the little guys keep them on for some pics on the big day.

Two more Gracie dresses . . .

So the other two Portabellopixie Gracie dresses are done! The third one is for my niece so the three girls can match at a family wedding next month. The fabric is from Heather Bailey's Pop Garden - three different colorways of the Peonies print. I'm happy to have this project done (on time!) but now I really need to get the flowergirl dress finished for Alyssa - that one is a bit more of a challenge. I also offered to make some matching ties for the ringbearers so I'm hoping to get some time in the sewing room in the next week and stay focused on getting those done before I get side-tracked into a different project.
