I've been hoarding this plaid flannel for over a year. It made the perfect cozy Christmas dress. We drove up to the mountains to take some scenic photos.

Find the pattern here: Aspen Ruffle Dress Fabric is from Joann (a year ago!). I'm hoping she'll wear it paired with tights all winter long! (And pink UGG knockoffs, whatever!) ...Continue Reading

It has a base soup container and a ...Continue Reading
