Pattern: Simplicity 2461 This was my first time using a printable pattern and I was far from thrilled with the process. I rather regret ordering several when they were on sale for a couple of bucks a piece (it seemed like such a deal!).
Fabric: A remnant rack find. Oh, I do love me a well stocked remnant rack. This print seriously reminds me of something from my childhood. A sheet I think. Something tells me that it may have been a baby sheet specifically. (Mom?)
Modifications: I changed the length. The pattern hits around knee level, I made it so that it went down to her ankles.
This is the dress that I made her to wear under the little knitted pinafore that I knew wouldn’t fit. Which doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, but I rarely make a whole lot of sense.
Complete with a little bit of loop-y lace trim, to go with the lace trim on the pinafore.
If I come across some fabric that will coordinate with it in my stash, I might just make her one of the sewn pinafores from the pattern.
Iain tucked that leaf into her hair and proclaimed her the Autumn Princess.
Moving day is Thursday, so I think I’m going to take a few days off. I’ll see you all on the other side. Enjoy the rest of your week!
It’s lovely I bet it will still fit when she grows into the pinafore too So it’ll all make sense in the long run
Moving? Did I miss something? I don’t recall you mentioning moving? Didn’t you just move? Wishing you an easy move anyhow
I hope moving went well! We just moved this past weekend too and i know its a lot of work! Hope you like your new place!!!
