I think the secret is to not cut corners, take your time trimming and under stitching, to get that perfect result.<br />Thank you so much for finding me on Instagram!<br />xx Nmotherof5https://www.blogger.com/profile/10195031588051037622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7451620064759054335.post-68677052810730417022016-02-04T14:17:34.028-08:002016-02-04T14:17:34.028-08:00This is one I have yet to try but always hope to! ...This is one I have yet to try but always hope to! I think the fact that it's lined, I assume t to be heavier than I am looking to make at the time. This turned out beautifully!!

I would think a little one would be quicker.<br />My guys don't need a lot of clothes (hand me downs and I wash daily) but if we did I could imagine this pattern being fantastic for running up half a dozen little dresses.<br />Thank you!<br />xx Nmotherof5https://www.blogger.com/profile/10195031588051037622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7451620064759054335.post-70357241686095111202015-12-17T14:23:18.922-08:002015-12-17T14:23:18.922-08:00Thank you Christine.

Of all of the things I've made Maggie, she has gotten the most wear out of this dress. Next summer, I must make her some more!
