New Dress

For Zoe!! I felt like sewing today, but didn't want to sew anything for my business (that just felt wrong) so I thought I would do one of the projects I had set aside for Zoe. Last year at the Farmer's Market, I found this really cute pillowcase dress for Zo. Once I started sewing, I wanted to make something cute for Zoe, and then remembered this dress. Looked at it and thought it would be pretty easy to do. So I found a couple of patterns at a room somewhere and Freshly Picked, combined the two and did my own thing. I think it's really cute, but Zoe doesn't want to wear it for very long right now. So sorry it's not that great of a picture of the dress on her. I have one more pillowcase dress to do for her, then I'm thinking about doing a patchwork skirt for her that I found at The Merry Church Mouse from the scraps from the nursing covers and diaper changing pads I'm making for my business.

Here it is all laid out. I think it's a little to billowy, but I don't know how to take it in without undoing everything. Plus, we didn't get a really good look while it was on Zoe. She just wouldn't hold still for every long.

Let me know what you think. I think it's really cute. Not bad for my first dress!!
