I had a birthday sneak up on me and finally got a chance to use this McCall Pattern I've been drooling over for awhile.
Little girl dresses don't take much time and this was no exception. Even with the fabulous yoke details I was able to finish it well in a day...

You can see more of the dress and the wearer's delight over on my personal blog, along with
the construction details and my discover on sizing. |
This put me on the hunt for other little girl's dress that had fun details like yokes, collars and interesting seaming. I put together a cute treasury of all my finds.
Do you like to sew little girl's dresses? I find it's easier because the pieces are so much smaller and fitting isn't as big of an issue as it is for a full grown woman.
Em, it's beautiful! I love sewing vintage dress patterns, they seem so much nicer than modern ones. I've made a few for my granddaughter, and hope to make more for the coming summer.(if it ever gets here!) I'm off to read your blog post!
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling little dress! I love it!
ReplyDeleteEmily that's adorable! I wish I had more time to sew :(
ReplyDeleteWhat a smart way to save time!
ReplyDeleteI made almost all my daughter's clothes when she was a toddler. Mostly from vintage patterns which I have saved hoping to one day have a grand daughter to sew for!
