I purchased this lovely red yarn cloth with white polka dots to make a dress for Tamara in the end of April. I was feeling very bad about the fact that I haven’t made anything cute with it yet. So my brain was working hard last few weeks and the idea was ripe today.
As Grasswire and Tamara went out to do some shopping I set to work. I had something very simple, yet cute in mind. I relied on some ideas from a Japanese sewing book I got from Chie. The little dress was done in less than an hour and I am very satisfied with the result. It’s not perfect, of course, but we have no weddings to attend, so I guess it will do for this summer.
Here are photos of the work in progress and the final product (I added two red buttons on the back after the photo session):
