If I can find something that fits into these criteria..i'm always happy with the outcome. I personally love crew cuts styles...because they mirror my style so much. BUT, I would go with whatever you are most personally drawn to and will benefit your family the most! Good job on the post today at PR&P too..I know how hard it is to do tutorials and do them well! I stressed a lot on what to do for my tutorial, but in the end just went with something I loved and wanted to make for my girls anyway:) Good Luck!marnaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17627840133351048939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674956477885976231.post-59582451970586569672012-11-13T20:52:03.410-05:002012-11-13T20:52:03.410-05:00Haha!

To be honest, I usually think of "amazing" things in my head and while I am doing them, I just think it's going to turn out terribly.... then I finish it and I'm usually pleasantly surprised! So, maybe dress A won't be so bad once you're done! But that last dress is pretty fun, so that would be awesome, too! I bet you could make it work!
