NEON Polka Dot Shirt

Chair Redo

Baby Bloomers {Melly Sews}
Today I’m going to show you how I made the bloomers that my niece wore with this dress. I didn’t take pictures while making the original bloomers, so you’ll see a different pair in the tutorial. That also allowed me to use colors that will hopefully be easier for you to see. There’s a free…
