I like like peasant dresses, kind of like a smocked bishop, without the smocking.

Thank you very much, I've made another and intentionally added a contrast band and sleeves. It's in Projects, green and blue.
9846Cute , Cute, Cute, a great save. She looks so cute in her outfit. Don't you just love how they pose in there new clothes. I used to take my son to the fabric store and let him pick the fabric.

She picks it out of my fabric drawers, isn't that sweet of them. Some days she poses better than others, most days, can't get her still-lol-Thanks for looking.
4823Looks great with the band. Was meant to be. She is a little cutie.
5709Hi Toogie It looks as if it is supposed to be there and the model is just georgous...soozie

Thank you Soozie, she's our little sweetheart. She was standing IN her chair, in my sewing room, with my 6 inch ruler (was her microphone) singing softly into the ruler, while I sewed her dress. I kept telling her she was going to fall, but she's not scared.

Thank you Jean, I used the band again today but an inch narrower. The dress is the same length as this one, but I lengthened dress more, and made the band less.
18079Good mistake! That band looks great! And that little one is adorable!
35675Love the band...makes the dress! Great job and a lovely model!

Thanks Kim. made another one a little different today, but purposely used the band this time.
314302I love the band. I think it sets off the little cutie just great. Both are adorable.
10909Another adorable outfit for your sweet g-daughter. She's a natural in front of your camera too!
Love the band on the bottom of the dress.... perfect detail for her dress.
BTW... just wanted you to know that I tried out the little shoes that you had been making, and they are just cute! I'm sending them up to my great-niece either today or tomorrow. I told my niece-in-law that she was getting some "Toogie-shoes" for Ella, and told her the story. You are famous!

Ah, that's sweet of you. Did you happen to take a picture before shipping, I'd love to see!!!......now lets get back to me being famous....I will have to tell my hubby when he gets in, 'We are going to be rich!"...I think 'fame and fortune' is the saying...I guess I'll have to get some binoculars, to find the fortune, 'cause I just don't see it!-lol-lol- All joking aside, I really do like these little shoes for my girls and didn't I say you would be surprised how easy to make. I'm glad you followed through.-Hope you have a good day-Toogie
9752Great way to start my morning seeing this little cutie in another beautiful creation sewn by you, Toogie! The band looks really great and adds to the dress overall. Love the little hat too! Cute, cute, cute :)

I've been wanting to emb her a hat. She goes to her brother's ball games and sun is so hot this fair skin can burn easily. I have an idea for another one this style, but I've got to make her panty/bloomer for this one. I wanted to make her some clothes for her birthday, but she is here so much and if its a different pattern I need to try on her, she usually takes the outfits home. Maybe I can keep the next one a surprise, since I know how this one fits.

You could probably dress your little cutie in anything and we would all swoon! You really do a marvelous job sewing EVERYTHING! Love seeing your posts!
4475I think you did a terrific job. I'm putting bands on all these pillowcase dresses I'm making right now for the orphanage. They help to liven up the dress or add more color. Love the little cap also/Lillian

Thanks Lillian, I wasn't sure what color to emb the cap, but in the end figured, white on the pink, would match more. The work you do is so generous and I'm not speaking only money wise, its your time, energy. I know how full your hands are. Take care Toogie
145789I always put a band on this style of dress Toogie as they grow so fast! Well done it looks fabulous. Love Chris

Thanks Chris-I rather see her in a dress at this age, than shorts. She is still babyish and in diapers. She will be two next month, so she will have to be potty trained soon.

Thank you , if I wanted to make a dress out of it, which I did, I needed more length!
158557Perfect solution - looks so cute and the hat too! What a model she is! Hugs to you! Laura*

Laura, she is 'forced' to model so she can get down from the table-lol- I thought if I put her there, when she is uncooperative, she wouldn't run off. She was dancing on the table top, so it is still hard to get her still !
95371looks great, as if it should be there! Darlin model
41781Cute little model and love the dress with the band.
