Shirring

So I had seen clothes that had been shirred before and wanted to learn how to do it myself. Until the Sewing Dork posted this tutorial I had no idea how easy it was! So on a whim, I went out and bought a yard of fabric at 7pm and had 2 dresses ready for church the next day! My youngest turned 2 on the 8th and I wanted her to have a new dress. I didn't have quite enough fabric so I added some plain black on the sides. My younger daughter's dress has quite a bit more shirring lines than my older to make it tighter for the little lady who is still not on the growth chart!

Happy Birthday to my spunky Bug!
