The Cousin Flag

My entry for this weeks Red, White and Blue challenge at The CSI Project is...a flag dress. Or I guess flag dresses? I made my daughter and 2 of her cousins a dress each and had a mini photo shoot tonight. I love how they turned out.

I used this pattern from LilBlueBoo. It's the best!

The girls loved their dresses. Together they are awesome, separate I'm thinking the second two will look more like Waldo than a flag. haha.

I had to stop the car on the drive home to get a picture of this sunset! Beautiful!

Have you ever seen the old Disney movie called Pollyanna? 'Cause this totally reminds me of it. And it's one of my favorites. So.....thanks. That made me smile. Great job!

Becky said...

Thank you everyone!

Janel...I changed my layout a bit so hopefully that helps. I have had a few people comment that they are following but it doesn't show up so I'm not sure what is going on. If you still can't get it please let me know. :)

Very cute dresses. I love anything americana. Very clever. They just have to go everywhere together when they're wearing the dresses.
