Leftovers

I made beautiful aprons for the restaurant. So beautiful that the waitresses think they are way too girly and frilly and won't wear. I've gotten over being offended and decided I can just try to get money off some of them on etsy or something? I need to get a photo up of them for you all, but pregnant women don't make the best apron models. I'll just have to bring one home tonight and make do.

Since I won't be making anymore, and have various yards of leftover Chocolote Lollipop fabric, I made another baby outfit with some. It didn't turn out too bad, being new at the garment/pattern sewing and all. I added a contrasting fabric to the bodice lining and at the bottom band. Instead of putting bows on the back where the straps meet the dress, I added two yoyos. I wanted to add centers to them to make them look more like flowers, but just couldn't seem to find the right teal color at (you guessed it)--Walmart.
