Wizard of Oz

Today I made a Dorothy dress for my niece, it was based on a basic girls dress pattern, and had a few bits changed around and added. I made it for her as my mother-in-law had told me a tale about how Lucy put a penny in the wishing well, and all she wished for was a wizard of Oz dress! Oh to be that sweet and lovely!!!!!

I was planning to use the actual Dorothy pattern but it wasn't available in John Lewis, though I later found it in Fabricland. However it was hugely more expensive than the basic pattern I bought!!

The fabric in total cost £6.04, a bargain! Tomorrow I shall take a photo of Lucy in it and post it!

I am currently debating if I can be bothered to make myself a dress, or if I can be bothered to bake a bacon and egg pie for our beach breakfast that we are planning for tomorrow - providing that we all are up and out early enough!!

Onwards to my dinner!!!
