Fireworks Dress




I had to make 
a couple of cute sundresses in the spirit of the 
4th of July. That fireworks fabric 
in my closet 
was just calling 
to me. 







So, I did a quick smocked sundress and 
added some wider straps and gave it a 
cutesy star broach just for that holiday flair.
I made some yo yo's and a star out of some patriotic ribbon. 
Then after sewing them all together
I added a rhinestone red heart.
Celebrating the 4th of July is eventful with the family. 
A no fuss sundress to bring along is just the ticket for all day fun.
