Here are the dresses I made for Ava during our snow days in January.
This knit was a bonus dress. I bought the fabric from Mood Fabrics online
just to try out their selections.
Ava loves knit dresses and now that I have a serger I can sew knits quickly.
The dress is reversible and completely lined.
I don't know how it fits.
It might be a night gown.
It is a very soft cotton knit.
Jessie and Ava bought fabric for four dresses for spring.
I gave them drawings of dress patterns with the fabric requirements of each.
When the snow and ice came I was all set to sew.
The tunic above can be a top, swim coverup, or dress.
This dress has a high waist, cap sleeves, and ballet neckline.
These three dresses remind me of Sleeping Beauty.
The three fairies who cared for Aurora in the Disney version
favored blue, green, and pink.

The before gathered waist.
This shift style looks great on Ava.
This is the back showing the zipper.
Jessie suggested horizontal stripes on the top and vertical stripes on the skirt.
I added a thin sash and hem of mint.
The back features a cute V.
Cap sleeves and a fully lined bodice make a comfortable spring/summer dress.
I took this to show the gray thread that I used for all three of these dresses.
I blended well with blue, green, and pink.
Oops! Photo out of order.

White pique accents the neckline, armholes and hemline.
I love the fabrics Jessie and Ava picked.
It was fun to sew these dresses.
I hope she enjoys wearing them.
Happy Sewing!
