Perfect Party Dress

 Day 11 ::  2010 Craft Books

Little Girls, Big Style: Sew a Boutique Wardrobe from 4 Easy Patterns by Mary Abreu
 what you need to know...
:: for girls sizes 2-6
:: 23 projects all from 4 basic patterns: basic bodice, peasant top/dress, pants, & skirt
:: the full-size patterns are at the back of the book on perforated sheets you can tear out
:: add photos of completed projects from the book to the Little Girls, Big Style Flickr group


 this was a new color combination for me ~ yellow/black/cream
 voila the perfect party dress

without the overskirt
 and with the overskirt
 done in size 4 which is a tiny bit big, hopefully by the time we have summer weather she'll have grown into it more
 i did a couple of things differently... putting the buttons in the front & placing the ribbon on top of the overskirt... which is the whole point of the book: make it your own
see you tomorrow for day 12 !
