To the Fair Tops
September 21, 2009 2:36 pmThis weekend was our county fair. On a whim, I made these shirts for the girls the day before. Of course, I forgot my camera so these are pictures of the girls the morning after the fair. ALL faired out!(All of these pictures were edited, then they got reverted back and I was too lazy to re-edit them, so please excuse the poor quality)
Here’s sweet, Ava. Hers had an aqua top.
Here’s sweet, Ava. Hers had an aqua top.
With matching hem tape.
Isabel’s was coral. For the back, I did an open back with a leather tie. It’s what I had around and it was so “country” looking. I really liked it.
Ava’s Back…
I did a slight gather at the shoulders…
…with a 3/4 length sleeve. I also (although hard to tell) did a fold over detail at the bottom of the sleeves.
Here’s Zach, doing a puzzle with the girls, very uninterested in being on my blog.
My little, Gigi, in brown.
Ava’s “funny” face…(and by the way, look at the skirt she wore with this! She’s so hodge-podge)
…and we end the shoot like this. Thank goodness fairs only come once a year.
