New Duds from Old Shorts!

I think I told you that I recently lost my brother-in-law.  This is  my husbands brother ......to pancreatic cancer in November.  We just got back from PA yesterday where we visited my sister-in-law and the entire family.  What a great time we had......busy.....but fun.  While there I got to sew.  What more fun could that be?.........right?  This is a picture of a little dress I made for Olivia my great neice.  It is the most adorable sundress.   The straps and trim are grosgrain ribbon with dog prints .  And here is another little sundress I made for her.  It is so sweet.

What is so neat about these dresses is that I made them from her Grandfathers boxers.  They are so soft and will not scratch next to her skin and what a great use of something that is no longer being used.  Her mother loved them and has vowed that they will be passed from generation to generation.  That way her grandfather will always be close to her heart.  Here is a picture of our Miss Olivia wearing the dress.......Now isn't that the sweetest picture ever???
