together ~~ we made it

We made a new dress for C's pink teddy bear.

C got Fashion Design Studio as a birthday present and C was excited for her own dressmaking. Hummmm.... however it is marked '10 and up' and she is only 7 year old. I knew she would need a significant amount of help to enjoy it.

checking all the materials

sketching clothing

start pinning...

I was not suprised that a seven year old struggled with it. But she didn't give up her project and she was willing to try doing it by herself, like, picking up fabrics and accessories for the dress, threading a needle, pinning fabrics on the cute dress form from the kit.  I think the best thing is that the dress form can be used for draping fabrics which is an essential skill for young designers. C has pinned two layers of fabric together on a basic white dress which was a ready-made in the craft kit and they looked amazing! Even though I did most of hand sewing for the dress, C and I had a great time together sharing idea, learning skill, and checking <3 for each other... : )
