Nice and easy to sew, and nice and light for Summer. I made a size 4 - with a 5 length, and it fits well. My daughter is rather petite!
The bird fabric is my own design - available on Spoonflower here in blue, pink and purple - with loads of coordinates. It's definitely one of my favourite of my own designs, and I love the way it has sewn up into this dress.
Some of the details...the flower:
The contrasting hem band:
The button closure at the back:
I made this slightly differently to the pattern. I used one full yard width (as it was all I had!) - and put a single seam down the back, rather than two side seams. I was about an inch short in width - but made some of that back by having one less seam allowance. I'm pretty happy with my matching seam! :)
I think it looks pretty on my little girl...and I'm very happy with the end result... I'm sure it will get a lot of use over Summer.
Your matching seams! I am happy for you too. :D They look gorgeous~
