I found this cute strawberry fabric forever ago and I actually have an apron made out of it but it isn't really the best fabric for an apron but it is great for a little girls dress. I also got a little bit of lace trim to put on the bodice of the dress and I think it adds a lot to the dress. The pattern doesn't call for it but I like to improvise, just like I wanted to make the dress adjustable for height a little bit. The skirt was a bit longer than I was hoping but it still turned out well. I also love being able to use my snap press! I made it so that the shoulder straps can be 3 different lengths and the white snaps go really well with the fabric.
All in all the dress turned out really well and I put it on Baby D to see how it would fit. Thankfully the baby girl I made it for is bigger than Baby D was at that age so she will get into it earlier than my son would have, if I was of a mind to let my little boy run around in a dress... I am sure my boys will get to have lots of opportunities to try on dresses for me though!
