More Little Geraniums


 These Little Geranium dresses are too cute, I just had to sew more… click here to see the first 'bouquet', Little Geranium is a free pattern/tutorial, size 0-3 months, and calls for a skirt with a width of 44", but I only used about 34" for these.

Such a small amount of fabric is needed in order to get a bodice and/or pockets to complete this sewing project, so it's fun to dig through the fabric stash and use up those small pieces of fabrics, like small rectangles of precious Liberty of London fabric…


First dress: bodice and pockets, Liberty of London; skirt, raspberry pink 100% cotton twill
 Second dress: bodice, Liberty of London; skirt and pockets, raspberry pink 100% cotton twill
 Third dress: bodice, Liberty of London; skirt and pockets, tomato red 100% organic cotton sateen
 Fourth dress: bodice and pockets, Russian nesting doll fabric from Denmark; skirt, tomato red 100% organic cotton sateen

These dresses were made for and will be donated to Dress a Girl Around the World :)
