Every August 4th we celebrate the day Mira came into our family. We go to dinner at Gyu Kaku and sometimes she gets a present. Past presents have been little things I picked up in Korea when I got her. Now that she's 8, I'm out of those little gifties so I made her a dress and promised her her own sewing machine when I get a new one for the shop. She was very excited about the machine and I could hardly get her to stop moving for these pictures!
The fabric is Happy Mochi Yum Yum in India Blue with Fiji in blue for the tie. I used McCalls pattern 5419.


She is adorable! What a lucky girl to be getting her own machine! I can't wait to see all that she creates and dreams up! Too sweet!
