Most of you know by now that my most favorite part of Figgy's is the children. I named my first shop "Figgy's Kids" because of that fact. I love seeing the dresses dance on a little girl or a pair of board shorts dig in the dirt on young boy.
When I opened my email a week ago I was happy to see this photo from my friend and photographer Angela. Inside the package was the dress I designed and made for her daughter.
The dress was the finished pattern sample for "Mary Go 'Round".
For this pattern I knew I wanted to create something simple that a beginner seamster could pick up and create without deciding to never sew again, LOL.
You know you've been there.
I decided that making the dress reversible like the bubble skirt was a must! If I could turn my clothes inside out for a clean new look I would buy 3 and have 6 outfits for the week. I was very pleased with the look and the simplicity but extremely nervous for the dress to arrive for Eve's approval.
Having a child's approval of your work is my dot at the end of the sentence.
I knew Angela's photography would be incredible and had no doubt I would love her shots but when I received the next email with the photos I was ecstatic to see Eve looking ever so lovely and to hear from Angela she loves the dress, I had my (.)
Thank you sweet Eve!
