Front Yard Photo Hop!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

We're kicking of 2017 with our stop on the Front Yard Photo Hop!

I used Front Yard Fabric by Sandra Clemons to create not one but TWO projects!

I started with some classic magnetic alphabet letters using a tutorial from All About Learning.

How to make your own fabric alphabet

I think they turned out super cute (and would have made a really great Christmas gift if I had finished them on time ;))

*I added adhesive magnetic strips to the back of all the letters so they can be used on the fridge.

................

I also thought that Bunny Tracks would make the BEST dress for an infant.

*the back closure calls for buttons so I covered some using fussy cut flowers from Bunny Tracks.

I used Dritz size 24 covered buttons

It's a little bit big now but it should fit Baby J this summer!

I used the Hula Hoop dress pattern by Puperita for the above look.
