I did get some sewing in. The bride needed 3 flower girl dresses (not for my three girls) and she wanted something fun and summery and this is what happened. It is just like this dress I sewed for True awhile back. I loved the fabric that she chose and will probably use the left overs to make my girls a summer romper. Cause every girl needs one, right?!
Totally not your traditional flower girl dress and I love it! There was more wedding making today, though I didn’t really do much but work on other things in the kitchen. The wedding will be here soon, so will our 6 year anniversary, then Brave’s birthday. Oh my! The summer is already slipping by so quickly. Next thing you know, it is time for baby! Eeks!!!
It is already the middle of June and I feel like I still have so much to do before the baby comes! Yes, I know. There is still 3 more months, but is anyone else feeling a bit pressed for time?!
oh, i just love the dresses! the fabric is beautiful!
Yesterday..yes. Pressed for time. Today? Nope. Schools out! Summer ahead! With a slight bump in road with a fractured elbow for Jack.
love love love them!!! 🙂
i LOVE those little flower girl dresses! i also especially love that they're all in different fabrics and non-traditional– that's exactly the kind of wedding i want one day 🙂
ps. pretty sure i'd wear a dress in any of those fabrics as well haha x
How beautiful are they!! Wishing these were in my size … I would have one if every colour!
They are ADORABLE! Could you do a tutorial on how to make them sometime? pretty please…
always pressed for time, ah!! the dresses are lovely!! hope you have a great summer & that it doesn't go by too quickly 🙂 stop to enjoy it! x

11 more weeks until baby boy comes! hooray! and eek! and we can come next friday… is that okay?
I love this idea!! So nontraditional and sweet!

WOW these dresses (and your yellow one…I swear, I'm dreaming about it) are fabulous. I relate to feeling pressed for time! Let's make do with what we have, praying and trusting and giving gratitude 🙂 I know I need the reminder!
I love all the prints!

Have a great weekend!!

Dear Rubyellen,
Wow, these are sooooooo amazing! Love love love them!!
Great to read (and look at) your blog, gives me a lot of energy and inspiration. And your girls are adorable! 🙂
Love, Sacha (maarnietvangrijs.blogspot.com)
Wow. Sweetest fabric ever. You deserve a romper yourself. Those are wonderful flower girl dresses.
Very pretty dresses – and I love the whole non traditional dresses!
so sweet!!!
I feel the same way about time… the older I get the more time seems to fly by!
My goodness!! So so sweet!! Love these lil dresses to bits!! So summery and happy!!
Have a Lovely weekend!!
xo
Dresses are gorgeous!! I would love a tutorial on how to make them, or a pointer to the pattern you used. So bright and summery!
Ahhh! I love the prints, so pretty!
If anyone can do it, it's you! I like to think of all those projects I take on that aren't really “necessary” as living life to the fullest. If I didn't do them, life would be simpler and easier, but I wouldn't have experienced it as much. I'm currently helping a friend plan her wedding, and it's taken so much time already, but I'm loving it!
Oh pleaaase tell us how to make these! They are so adorable!
so so beautiful!
Love the dresses! So pretty!
oohhh my goodness I LOVE these!! Just wonderful
