Pinny-dress from old table cloth

I was so happy, 

that I managed to sew the first pinny-dress for little princess,

I made an other.

I have saved an old table cloth that has a bad stain,

and now I used part of it.

So I took pattern 

and dry to fit them as nice as possible.

After making one I supposed,

next one would be easy-peasy,

without any troubles.

Well. It didn't go so fluently.

First I run out of yarn.

I had a new roll,

that wasn't a problem.

The problem was, 

that I couldn't find the start!

I struggled with it over half an hour,

before giving up and taking an other one.

1-0 to reel!

After sewing zigzag all over,

I turned first cuffs and neck-line.

And after that shoulders.

Then I cut the needle:

It is always sooo nice to get almost heart attack 

-and search little pieces of needle around...

Of course first needle I changed,

had so small needle eye,

I couldn't get the yarn through...

Sigh.

But then side seams:

Front of dress:

I tested few different pieces of lace on neck-line

- on hem it was ready

because table cloth was edged with narrow lace.

back

Finally I choose narrow lace on neck-line, too:

The fabric is linen,

so my daughter-in-law might - just might- 

thank me warmly,

when she will iron it...
