Ruffles

How do you make nine ruffled dresses for a custom  Etsy order?
First, you start with the tea dying . . .
It took a LOT of tea - about 6 pots full!

 Then cutting them all out - and keeping them straight
Had to sneak in a photo of the "beautiful dog of the house"
He doesn't like his picture taken

Here, after three weeks, is some of the finished product

 The backs of the dresses have little crocheted circles


Here's more!

 They are off to California in the a.m. for a talent show
I'm seeing ruffles in my sleep!

Love, Linda
