Ahh, where do I start. I've had to keep this little secret for a couple of weeks but now I am free to spill the beans. This adorable little baby girl is modeling a dress that I sewed from a pattern that I was selected to test for The Cottage Mama. The pattern is now available in PDF form and it will be available in print form by the end of June.
I absolutely love this dress. The pattern was inspired by a dress that the pattern maker, Lindsay Wilkes's mother wore when she was young. There are so many things to love about this dress. The flutter sleeves, the adorabe Peter Pan collar, and the long sash that ties in a bow at the back.
This pattern was surprisingly easy to make. Lindsay gives such great explanations and great color pictures of each step. This is the first time that I have ever made such a detailed dress and I was thrilled with the pattern and how easy it went together. I will definitely be making this dress for my Sew Many Ruffles Etsy shop.
We did some inside and outside shots. Isn't she just adorable?
I aso have a couple more outfits in the works. Shhh, it's a secret. :) But I will share as soon as I can.
Until then, if you are interested in purchasing the Georgia Vintage Dress pattern, you can go here.
If you are interested in a dress for your little girl, please message me on Etsy here or email me. I might still be able to get this fabric or I can suggest some others that will look great as well.
Oh, to see more variations of this dress from the other pattern testers, go to this Pinterest board, or to Lindsay's blog post.
