KCWC Day 2

Two little dresses are the result of today's sewing for Kids' Clothing Week. I love both of them!

green & pink:

• pattern: Leila & Ben Sweet Little Dress


• size: 12 months


• fabrics: cottons


• mods: did a rolled hem using my serger for the sleeves and neckline, then zigzagged the elastic about 1cm in from the edge, instead of doing a casing. Not sure I like the neck - might be a bit too ruffly by her face.

red & pink:

• pattern: Leila & Ben Sweet Little Dress


• size: 12 months


• fabrics: Andalusia by Patty Young for Michael Miller; coordinating quilter's cotton; pink organza


• mods: Sewed a doubled strip of organza under hem and sleeve


• fit on both dresses: a little large still - she's wearing between 6 and 12 months sizes ready-to-wear.
