Craftiness: Easter Edition

Guess who came over for a play date last week?  


For some reason, I was feeling really ambitious and decided to make my Easter dress.  The pattern was simple enough (hooray for raglan sleeves!) and after a few...*ahem* disagreements with Ken and the knit fabric I was using (yes, I do yell at inanimate objects), it actually wasn't too bad.  Of course, the hem isn't actually "finished" (knit doesn't unravel, so who cares if it's just cut instead of sewn?), but I finished it in time for church last Sunday.  Hooray!  Here it is!

Umm...so this may or may not have been sitting wadded up for the past week before I took the picture...


It's just a basic wrap dress--I know these pictures don't give you the full effect, but I really didn't get any of me in the dress.  Maybe later.  Oh, and you obviously can't tell from the pictures, but the fabric is about the softest stuff ever.  Mmm....
