minions!

my dear friend Karen asked me to make a birthday dress for her sweet daughter. i couldn't pass up the opportunity since she is having a Despicable Me themed party! she sent me some reference pictures and i was off! i got some fun fabric from JoAnn Fabrics and ordered an adorable handmade patch of a minion from the lovely and talented Linda Ellis of MinionCrazy. (she has an Etsy shop full of wonderful patches. i can't wait to use her services again!)
the birthday girl loved her dress and Karen and her husband could not have been happier. i would say that is a success!
