The first tree dress.

I was meant to plant lettuces out all day yesterday but it poured with rain so I had to stay indoors and sew instead. Yippee!!

I made a dress for Pepper from one of the tree prints that I did the other day.

I sewed some ric rac I crocheted from this pattern onto the bottom hem.

I feel like this dress is a mixture of all the ideas I have been working on over the last few months; crocheted trims, screen printing and sewing clothes from vintage sheets.

I'm really quite pleased with the result.

I love playing around with mismatched panels and binding and patterns and colours.

It feels playful and fun.

I think I'm ready to make some bigger ones now.

I hope you have a great weekend what ever you are up to.
