One of my sweet friends has an adorable shop filled with patterns for little girls dresses. Recently I snagged this one from her shop. This is the first dress I’ve ever sewn for Katelyn and I loved how easy it was to follow the pattern from start to finish.
I did make a couple of adjustments to it at the end, but only because it ended up being a little big for her so I pleated the front, covered it with a flower and sewed in the straps at an angle so they would stick up funny on the sides.
Katelyn loves her new dress and I think it looks adorable on her.
What do you think?
As we took pictures, Katelyn picked up this picture from her book case of her when she was 1 month old. Crazy to think that she was this small only 3 1/2 years ago.
Darn you time. Slow down!
Then we headed outside to get some pictures of Brayden too.
It’s been far too long since I’ve taken pictures of them.
They are growing up so fast!
Do you have littles? What’s been your favorite age so far?
