2 Dresses

 I decided to whip up some dresses for 2 of my nieces! It helps when I'm feeling bad about not having a girl, good thing I have a lot of nieces ;0)

I made this dress using a free pattern I found, I didn't add the ruffle on the bottom and I also made the dress in a A-line shape, the size is 4-5.


I made this using a free pattern from Sew Much Ado. It is sized for 0-3 months so I added a bit on the sides and a couple inches to the length, I also used a very soft and stretchy knit fabric. I left the sleeves raw with no elastic. I am hoping it will fit my niece who wears 6-9 months as either a dress or a tunic.

School starts soon and I enrolled in two classes while my boys are gone during the day, it is exciting and completely terrifying at the same time!
