KCWC: grey polka dot top


I really love how this top turned out! So hipster-ish. I made it with some of this huge bolt of grey fabric that I got a long time ago, and was glad to use some of it up. I used fabric paint for the dots and one of those foam dot brushes...just eyeballed the distances between dots. Added some bands around the sleeves and bottom to keep it fitted, and that's all she wrote. Took me less than an hour, total. (not including paint drying, of course!)


 Yep, Sadie still loves her cheesy posing. ;) So do I.

The posing...at about three my daughter did the head tip. Almost every picture she looked like "tip me over and pour me out" with more of the head thing going. It is one of those adorable, funny quirks! Hope you are feeling well and you are rockin' it out being such a pregnant mommy!
