Ruffles, can a girl have too many?

Adding a ruffle to the bottom of the top.  Whoops!  I should have added the rest of the strips to the fabric before I added it to the top!  Well, you only make a mistake once (hopefully) to learn this lesson.  Grace wanted to wear this before I finished it!  (An idea for later!)

Here is the added strip, then a mix of colors for the added ruffle.  I had to gather the top of this strip, in order to fit it easily to the bottom ruffle on the top.  Worked out well, and was easy to put together.  So maybe this is an okay way to do it.  I'll have to get out my Pfaff or Serger that Tammy gave me, and next time finish off the edges with a zigzag, or a sergered (oh my gosh!) edge.  The serger scares me....it even has the thread, still threaded in it, so I'll have no problem threading....hmmm.

Here she is at Mother's Day Out, wearing her bulldog print dress.  The girls tend to wear their cheerleader outfit, or school t-shirts the weeks, that a football game occurs.  Right here, Grace is trying to get Cooper to wake up.  "Wake Up Cooper!"  He still sleeps!

And one of her 24 month skirts, I added a test ruffle that I initially did with my Singer Featherweight 221 ruffle attachment.  She can still wear the skirt, as she is no longer in diapers!  (Reuse, Recycle, Repurpose!)

What else can I ruffle?  Ideas anyone?  Please give me a post/link and I'll try it!

Oh, look what that Singer Featherweight Ruffle Attachment Can Do!

So it is a tradition here to dress up your little girl in either a cheerleader outfit, a dolled up Bulldog t-shirt, or some other cute outfit for the football games.

Look what I did with my Singer Featherweight Ruffle Attachment.

Now I didn't like the way the attached skirt came straight down, so I had to figure out how to make it more flowly.  I took part of it off (I wanted to keep the ruffles), and add a more flowly part to the outfit.

Here is what I came up with.  Moved some things up, added a ruffle on the bottom with a flared insert piece and attached it to the original bottom ruffle.  This worked out pretty well.

Here are the two Bulldog type outfits that I've made so far.  What you haven't seen are the Bulldog capri pants.  That is another post!

Here is our model, with her coordinating Bulldog hairbows, showing off the outfit.  All with the Singer Featherweight 221 Ruffler.  Now, if I could get the Singer Featherweight ZigZag attachment to work, then I could finish off the edges all on one machine.  The zigzag attachement is kinda cagegy.  Anyone know how to make it work well?

Your thoughts?
