I found this old pattern in my Op shop travels...
It looked pretty cute..and lets face it...
little girls dresses just never go out of fashion.
I think the pattern cost me .50cents..
The zip was .50cents
and the vintage sheet was $3.00
So.... for $4.00...Bella had a brand new dress....
Bella loved it...
Now to make one for the Brookie chook.
So sweet, my mum likes to sew for my daughter too xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Kaitlynne... I used to sew for my children...but it was always the practical stuff...this time around I can sew the "just because" items...its a lot of fun. I am so glad your Mum sews some lovely things for your daughter too...I bet you love them.

ReplyDeleteMardi. you will have to go into competition with Theresa at Rummage Style! :-)
I am pretty sure its a similar pattern to the one my Mum would have used for my dresses when I was young too Angie... they just never go out of style.
DeleteOh gosh....I'm no competition to Theresa... If I could...Id have a wardrobe full of Rummage style....they are gorgeous.
You know I love it. Suits Miss Bella to a T. Pretty girl.
