I forgot to post about this little dress I made for my daughter a few months back. Well, for Christmas really!
It's called the Daydreamer dress - another from the very clever Jen of Tie Dye Diva. Of all the things I made her for Christmas, this was the one she chose to wear on Christmas Day...
She chose the fabric - it's an Ann Kelle print (Birds in Spring). I thought it might be a little young for a 5 year old, but apparently no!
I made her a size 4, with a 5 length...she typically wears 4 as she is pretty slight. She had particularly requested a LONG dress - so long it is! The fit is great - particularly with the tie at the back.
Next time I will probably go with a rolled hem on the bodice ruffle and hem - just to save time!
She loves it - and it is nice and light for the very long hot summer we have had... Also good apparently for climbing trees....
Running through orchards...
...and picking apples!
