I used Kwik Sew pattern #3921. I added the ruffle at the neck, made the skirt all one fabric, and made a fabric tie to go around the waist. After seeing the dress on Lucy, I probably should have put some little thread belt loops on the side to keep the bow in place!

Dress #4
Dresses 4 and 5 are matching dresses I designed for Lucy and Darla. Scott and Chelsea took these cute pictures of the girls.
Not sure why I chose yellow and gray to make these dresses, but we think I might have been influenced by Scott and Chelsea's bedroom decor. What do you think?
So here it is. Dress # 4!
I started with McCalls pattern # 5791 and added the belt and ruffles.

Dress # 3
I just returned home from a wonderful relaxing week in Hawaii! With the exception of checking out a Hawaiian Quilt store, I didn't think of sewing at all! Now I'm home and thinking of nothing but sewing--prom is officially here!
I really love the Lisette patterns for Simplicity, so I finally made one of them for Anna. Dress # 3 is Simplicity #2064. I fell in love with the pattern and found the exact fabric. I think it turned out great. Here it is:

Dress # 2
Here's dress # 2! This dress was for our sweet little Ellie. I used Simplicity pattern # 2292 just like in the first dress. I made this dress according to the pattern except I cut the front piece on the fold so there wouldn't be a seam through these cute little flowers!
