Those are so cool! They do totally scream summertime. Ole!

I’m right there with you (except for the pregnant part): Sewing in the steaming heat – and pillowcase dresses, at that – and looking forward to stuffing my post-maternity body into my new Target suit and heading to the pool. No shame in my game — Mama needs to cool down!

How cute those are!!! I think I might even have a REALLLY old Mexican dress stashed away somewhere. My daughter would never wear it “as is”, but I think she’d like this!!

Love those dresses! I need to make a few for my little one. It is blistering out! We’re feeling your pain here in Temple, too.

I would love a tutorial on those beautiful dresses!!!! They are darling–I saw them on flickr and “rushed” right over…I love them.

Although, I now must confess that I am a really terrible sewer. So, are they available thru your shop on etsy?
