The 13th Birthday Outfit 

Complete!

Here it is, all finished:


Here she is wearing it.  She won't be 13 until next month, but with a very busy schedule and both of us being away on different trips at different times, making it ahead of time was the best plan.


Not too bad, probably need to think about a sway back adjustment in the future! ;)

We still need to pick up the rest of  the accessories, but for right now, it looks fine.  We were able to pick up some fun new sandals:


I really liked this pattern.  The pattern itself was not hard to make and the results are really good.  I'll be interested to see if the other Lisette patterns are the same.

Parting Shot:  Envelope.  My daughter has been working on some book making skills this summer, and that includes some envelopes and other paper goods.  She made these yesterday, just out of circles of paper.

Great outfit & your daughter looks gorgeous in it. It seems a bit more grown up than the other things I see her wearing on your blog.
