Sundress.

I'm loving making these summery little dresses at the moment!
(I think she's a bit over modelling them for me though!)

Some vintage floral sheets, a bit of elastic and I make the rest up as I go along.

Sometimes long, sometimes short, maybe a pocket, or a frill, or some twirly gathers. The mixy matchier the better I think.

I couldn't be bothered hemming the sleeves on this one so I cut them on the selvage. I love a sewing short cut don't you?

She's slowly acquiring a whole wardrobe of them. The three of them are. I wonder if people down the street mutter to each other: There go those girls dressed in floral bed sheets...

Maybe one of these days I'll work out a way to scale the pattern up for sizes other than my three and write up a pattern. Maybe one day I'll make one for myself. Maybe one day I'll make up a few and pop them in my shop. Maybe.

I hope your Sunday is a funday.

Oh and my cushion cover auction ends tomorrow morning. You gotta be in it to win it you know!!

Bye now. XX
