Minnie Dress

My second attempt at baby dress sewing. This is a pattern from Cucito Summer 2009 magazine. I call this the 'Minnie Dress'! Think red spots, that's Minnie Mouse's staple dress! hehe.

The dress seems a bit too big on my small sized 9 month old because it is actually based on a 80cm size pattern. The smallest pattern is 90cm in the book but I figured if I do not add any seam allowances to the pattern it will be more or less 80 cm,1 year old size.

Was very nervous when I used the sewing machine to make button holes for the very first time; as the dress was complete, and the final phase was to sew on the button holes, what if I blotch it! There goes the dress! haha. Fortunately the button holes turned out ok

 



What are pockets good for? Dollies, of course!




Update: Little Terror’s pictures wearing this dress at 1 years 4 month old
