I found this yarn a long time ago and have been waiting for the perfect project for it. With summer comming up I decided to make a top out of it. Then I got this crazy idea to sew a skirt to the bottom of it. Now all I had to do was figure out how to sew things since I have never ever sewed anything in my life ha ha :oops So here is what i came up with bare with me.... I used Berroco Lullaby yarn and some fabric I got on sale for a $1 a yard. My DD is posing for me

WOW thank you all for the wonderful responses!! This was really simple after I figured out how to thread the sewing machine haha! The material is just a little stretchy so it matches nicely with the yarn. This is one of my favorite projects though. I love being able to make stuff for my daughter that she can wear and tell everyone that her mommy made it! haha

Gorgeous! Beautiful dress and beautiful daughter! My mom made all our clothes till I got into high school, and I sure miss those handmade dresses. I made her make 2 dresses for my 30th birthday, but I'm not sure I can get her to make me anything for the upcoming 40th.
