The Dancing Queen is nine years old!
Last week, my third child turned nine. For her birthday, I gave to her pattern, fabric, and notions needed to make herself a new dress. The pattern is also for a matching doll dress (which we will make another day). Part of the gift was hours of one on one time with me as together we cut, sewed, and eventually modeled and photographed this new dress. It was lots of fun.
This pattern in super cute – with button holes in the back of the bodice that the shoulder straps lace through.
And the matching shorts underneath make it very playground friendly.
Which was a good thing, considering that her birthday celebration was at John’s Incredible Pizza.
So, another year gone by. Another child inches towards independence (or, should I say, shoots towards it at break-neck speed!)
Happy Birthday, Dancing Queen! I love you!
