A Piece of the Past

When my Mom was going through some of my grandparent's things she found some patterns from when my grandma was a little girl. One of them was in Amelia's size, so we thought it would be fun to try it out.

Here's the dress created with the original pattern. The only change I did was to lengthen it about 2".

Slightly sack like? I guess that was the style back then. Not a good look for Amelia.
Here's my attempts at making it fit a little better.

It's a little better. Definitely wearable, but I don't think I'll be using this pattern again. It was still a fun little exercise.

Also, since I seem to be so terrible at updating the blog lately, follow me on instagram. I'm @hansenmary
It's a little easier to take more photos since I usually have my phone on me, but not my camera.

Finally, an update.......

WITH SCHOOL PICTURES!!!!

(aka mini glamour shots)

We own the files for these pictures so let me know if you want me to email you a particular one. That way you can get it printed in whatever size you want. We do have lots of wallet sizes that we'll try to mail or handout in the near future.
