On a Happier Note


I made this dress for my lovely niece Maris for her 11th birthday. It's black and white with grey. The rick-rack edging helped the look a lot. Although this dress is not at all complicated, it took me quite a long time, most likely because I was very tentative about what I was doing since this is the first real clothing sewing project I have done in a very long time. I liked the result. My niece is quite petite, so I cut the dress pretty short. I liked the fabric a lot for her. I made it from the Simplicity 5234 pattern. Now my daughter wants me to make her a dress, and we have picked out the pattern but we haven't found a fabric yet.
