The Little Grey Cowgirl Dress:: TUTE ADDED ((Picture heavy))

[SinDoll]

I'd love to use your tute to make this nifty lil' dress but I can NOT look at that rat again. I totally dropped a load when I opened the page and saw her!  Aren't you afraid she'll gnaw off your nose in the middle of the night?

Jokes aside, this is a great tutorial.

(But the rat does trip me out.)

She started eating my cookie dough kitkat before, I think she got a big sugar hit because she FREAKED out, and was like in fast-forward. Heheheh, she's a good little girl, She talks to me when she sits on my shoulder. She's my best friend ((don't tell my cat that!)) because I'm home alone every day and she keeps me company. Her little claws are sharp though, so my chest gets heaps of scratches on it!

The thing that freaks most people out is her tail, I'm not sure why. Lol. My dad LOVES her, but pretends he doesnt.

I love it! Especially the pockets on the first one. Great tutorial too.

Just one question...is it best to do the elastic first on each half then sew the side seams, or would it be the same to do the side seams first then add the elastic? I guess I'm confused about the cutting the waist elastic in half part.

Erm, it's her tail.  Her body.  Her claws.  Her nose.  Her whiskers.  Her teeth.  Her eyes.  --  Her overall RATNESS!

It's sweet that she keeps you company.  I love all God's creatures.  Some from a distance, but that's okay.

Um, you could do either way, but i find its easier to do the elastic then the sideseams, its easy because then the ends of the elastic get included in the side seams and its alot neater.

Be VERY careful.

Girl rats tend to fight each other if there's two of them ((that's why if Alice had a daughter I'd have to seperate them)) and make sur eyou only get ONE boy rat ((if her playmate is of the sexual kind)). My friend ((Who gave me alice)) had two beautiful boys and they both played with her and had her scent on them. Then the big one Grim, ate the other one Strummer.

It was really horrifying an traumatic.
