The Ingredients:

Pattern-  Miss Madeline by The Handmade Dress

Fabric- Lake House Dry Goods- Holly Holderman’s Doll Dresses in “Petal”  (The green gingham is Wilmington Prints “Cherry Picked” by Stephanie Marrott)

I couldn’t bring myself to use the elastic that the pattern requires… and of course, I wanted the same belt that I used on Lorna’s dress but I thought narrower made more sense so I opted for adjusting it.

I’ll post pictures of the girls in their dresses in a couple of days.  We took pictures today and I loved them.

First…

The Ingredients:  Lake House Dry Goods- Holly Holderman’s Doll Dresses in “Petal”  (The green gingham is Wilmington Prints “Cherry Picked” by Stephanie Marrott)

The Pattern:  New Look 6744

Sash:  From Sew Beautiful’s cover photo…  Cathedral Window “belt”

This dress is so adorable and I love it SO much, that I bought the above “blank” dress from All About Blanks and am making one like the cover too  (with my own fabric options though.)

Yes, I know.  It’s a nightgown.  however, I think it’s cute.  I like it so I played a bit, had some fun, and voila… Lorna’s Easter Dress…

Time to go start on Jenna’s
