Our darling little Cheeks is 2 !!!!
This little cutie just LOOOOOVES Minnie and Mickey Mouse! as in she is completely obsessed!
So when I heard the Project Run and Play's themes and the 1st one was 80's cartoon I knew exactly the outfit I would blog! I don't know about you, but I watched a lot of Mickey and Minnie in the 80's!
I used the Scientific Seamstress Precious dress. I wanted a classic Minnie looking dress, but also wanted to make it a bit modern for everyday wear and not a costume. I am a practical seamstress. I like everyday wear outfits.
I just adore the finishing details on this dress, the hidden button placket is such a nice touch. Especially since I used snaps... Cheeks doesn't hold still very well during getting dressed so I like fast closure options.
I did a double skirt layere to get the classic red polka dot on there and to tie in the sleeve bands. The black collar I think brings the shirt into a modern feel versus the traditional white collar.
The pants are the Sisboom Katies, but they are for another blog post :)
Happy Birthday Cheeks!

SO CUTE!!! But she totally outshines Minnie. She outshines everything. The top is adorable, though. SO adorable.
Love how this turned out! It's adorable! Can't wait to see what you create next!
She is so adorable! I love her oufit!
I love her. I want to steal her away. You can come too :)
I love the black collar--looks like a subtle nod to Minnie's ears! Really sweet dress.
You've held your sewing skills high with this top.

awww so cute!!! I love minnie and mickey... A show I actually watched in the 80's ;o) I'm currently hosting a sewing series called Sew Many Books. There is a sew a long {with prizes!} and not many entries ;o) If you have sewed anything inspired by a book in 2014 I'd love for you to come over and link it up. It doesn't have to be a new project. Head over to Nap-Time Creations and look up Sew Many Books...
The top is cute, but the picture of the two of you is precious! She looks so happy!
Great first addictions to prints can lead to quilting. Great comfy looking dress. I think I'd like to put one together too. Great blog and fun to learn more.
