Spring Dresses

Photos of dresses for Ava as promised.

First a simple sleeveless dress decorated with rickrack

and a tie in the back.

She has another dress by this pattern that she has outgrown.

I made the next size and hope it fits.

The fabric is patterned with lots of little girls playing.

Next is a sort of plain dress with two sash options.

First, a polkadot.

Mom said the plain satin was her choice.

We will see which Ava chooses.

Here is the back. I made this pattern before and really improvised because I didn't like the instructions. This time I followed the instructions and it was MUCH easier!

The zipper is a little low from the neckline, so I added a button and loop at the neck.

Since the dress is so plain, I used the extra ribbon to make a hairbow.

We will see if Ava will wear it.

Later today I'm going to work on the Quarantine Quilt A-Long.

Keep sewing and stay safe.
