Toddler Dress

I just finished this toddler dress using Liz Clark's Infant Gowns pattern.  It's the size C/D pattern in the yoked bodice.  I love, love, love it.  Maybe it will be a better fit by the end of the summer, too!

I got the inspiration mainly from this picture from the Earthly Angels blog.

I actually had this one mostly done before I even started sewing on the blue one I posted previously, I just wasn't sure how I was going to do the sleeves, so I had to stall.

I considered making an upside down tulip/flower shaped sleeve, but in the end, went with the pleated sleeve.

I think I'm creating a tradition of making a baby/girl's dress with leftover fabric from a lady's dress!

Because of the growth tucks in the skirt, it really puffs out all on its own!  Now to make some little petticoats to puff the skirt out evenly!
