A Little Farmer
At school last week they put together a little pumpkin patch with story time and games for the kiddos. You were also invited to dress as an animal or a farmer so knowing sister pretty well and knowing that she would not dress as an animal, a farmer it was! I found some super cheap dressalls at a local thrift store and began cutting them apart and sewing onto them and this was the outcome. . .
They were really fun to make! By just sewing fabric over the already existing denim on the back and for the front pocket they had a totally different look. I cut off the bottom denim skirt and cut out a long rectangle for the skirt and gathered it before sewing it on. It came together pretty quickly and super cheaply! Yipppeee!
She’s the cutest little farmer I ever did see.
Can’t wait to see you all later this month!!!
