Spring and Summer always bring on the mood for me to sew up a new dress or two. This year, I get to sew three! After finally finishing my Monique Dress Tuesday (pics soon), Bailey and Kylee both wanted a dress too. So, yesterday, at Kylee's request, I sewed up an Abigail Dress for Kylee that matched her hat and headband.
The only catch? She had her heart set on wearing the dress for the Spring Music Concert, this morning! I guess I do best when I'm under the gun, because I finished the dress at 5pm yesterday, and she skipped off to school in it at 8am this morning! Thank goodness it fit!
Now, I just have to finish another Monique Dress for Bailey by next weekend, and I'll probably be over my Spring Dress fever for a little while.
And, just for a little proof that even when I don't write on here, I am actually doing things, here is a picture of a delicious cake I made for Nick's 18th birthday Tuesday.
Here's how to make it:
Roll 1 package of sugar cookie dough out into a circle, using flour as needed. Place on a pizza pan and bake according to directions on dough. Allow extra baking time as necessary to make sure the center is done. Then cool.
Mix an 8oz. package of cream cheese with 1/2 C. of sugar and 1 tsp. of vanilla. Spread evenly on the cooled crust.
Slice up your favorite fruits (I used strawberries, kiwi, and blueberries) and decorate your cake with fruit and berries.
Eat and enjoy!
