Oliver+s Patterns

Spiritual - There is no sin that is greater that God's mercy.  He did not ask us permission to make us, but He does ask our permission to save us.  All we have to do to receive His mercy is to admit our faults, confess our sins, and ask forgiveness.   St. Paul says, "Where sin increased, grace abounded all the more." Rom 5:20
 













Sewing -  The red dress is the Jump Rope Dress by Oliver+s. 
The style is wonderful - button tab front, cute pockets on the skirt, darling collar, belt loops and fabric belt.  Audrie is the model and, of course, the dress was made for her.  The pattern is for an intermediate sewer. 

The dress I made for Gigi was the Birthday Party Dress.  this is a sleeveless A-line dress.  The front has three box pleats with a button tab and the little dress buttons down the back.  Again, this dress is not for beginners.  It looks adorable on my little girl.
