#NeedleWorkMonday!

Today also happens to be Memorial Day! The perfect day to share one of my Kentucky State Fair entries from last August.

I made this sweet apron knot dress, out of vintage (look, not age) patriotic, cotton woven prints.

I've made several dressers in this pattern and just love the way they turn out! So simple but cute!

Every summer, the Hive account@hippiedaughters and I work on different projects to enter in the fair.

It has been family tradition since I was a child, to go to the state fair each summer. Back then, my mom entered sewing, knitting, and embroidery. Her winnings payed for our trip to the fair!

Last year, I entered this patriotic dress, a newborn top, infant summer romper, soft soled shoes, and mens boxers (yep, boxers... They are now Hive account@hippiehusband's).

All are sewn on with my serger, as well as my sewing machine.

I placed 3rd with the dress! (as well as two 1st's, one 2nd, and another 3rd).

I hope you will enjoy these photos from our fair excursion! I cannot wait for this summer!

Do you attend your state fair? Have you entered anything? (art, cooking, animals, etc)
