this sweet little dress is going to a certain little fall birthday girl...who happens to be born on Halloween...who i had the pleasure of dancing with in Dallas...who is the sweetest little whiner i have ever seen..."mommy ehhh" - i am still working on her tutu because of course she needs that tutu for her upcoming dance classes, right mum?i used the Olive Ann Designs To Tie For dress pattern. this is my new favorite pattern - it can be a dress or top - it has a pattern for a matching doll dress (can you say cuteness?) and headbands. what? amazing! it was a cinch to do - after the cutting was done i probably put it together in a little over an hour. i modified it a bit - i left out the giraffes however...probably much to my mother's delight :) inside joke...sorry...and added her initial and used less of a border for the bottom than it called for and my seam allowance was a little off - it called for 5/8" - i probably should've stuck with it, but it seemed way too narrow for the straps and arms - i didnt want it too low cut either.
isnt this fabric the cutest! this fabric just screamed little Eliot since she is a true fall baby like myself...and since she is turning 2 (what? really?) and becoming more picky about what she wears i really do hope she likes it! well...there is always the tutu in case this one doesn't wor
k out baby girl!
