This is the Perfect Party Dress by Heidi and Finn. I bought the pattern (and about 5 more!) during a KCWC sale at Heidi and Finn's Etsy shop about a year or so ago. (I told you I had previous inspiration that rarely came to fruition...) I left off the front bow for a couple reasons and find I really like the simplicity of the basic dress.
This was a quick and easy sew. After the backpack, I like doing things in twos now; the 2nd one goes faster and easier and why waste that immediate knowledge? The fabric for Simone's dress is Moda something-or-other purchased ages ago and that was being saved in my stash to be used together. Well, I finally found the right project and cut into it! The fabric for Etta's dress is Amy Butler Seeds in Duck Egg with the contrast band being some loveliness that I got from Karen one Christmas.
The pattern goes up to 5T. I think these cousins will need more matchy matchy dresses, hmm?
These are great Amy! I love matchy cousin sewing too!! Very cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I always appreciate some validation!
DeleteThey are so adorable. I'm really disappointed that the pattern only goes up to 5T because I would like one in my size, haha! Now you'll just have to get the two girls together in their matching dresses and get a picture of them.
ReplyDeleteYou do know this means you'll have to do a follow up post with the cousins together in the dresses, don't you? July in North Carolina?
ReplyDeleteThat's just what I was thinking! Beach dresses...
ReplyDeleteI'll send a pic of her wearing it, but she can model it in person at the beach. So fun! Thanks sis!!
