I really, really love the fabric of this dress. It is called "Small Gatherings" in sea by Anna Maria Horner. I kept the lines of the dress very simple so that it wouldn't distract from the fabric and I am very happy with how it turned out.
I also like this dress for practical reasons. It is very comfy and will make a great all purpose playdress all year long. In the summer she can wear it alone. And in the fall it will look great layered with a denim jacket, leggings and boots.
The other great thing is that this is one of those dresses that will grow with her. She can wear it now as a dress and eventually it can be worn as a peasant style tunic or shirt. You gotta love that!Well, thanks for reading!! And yes, that is a garden gnome in my yard!!
What a cute dress!! And I love the versatility of it!
