Here’s a little sneak peek! This is what I made using some of this fabric and this pattern courtesy of the aptly named blog Make It and Love It. I did make it, and I do indeed LOVE it!! Ashley’s patterns are always so delightfully simple and easy to understand. Mine was made from a bed sheet purchased at the thrift store for just $1, and there is plenty of fabric leftover! The minute I saw the bed sheet, I knew I wanted to use the decorative edge as a ruffle on a cute sundress.
The pattern is available for sizes 6-12 months all the way up to size 5T, so I’m planning a few more of these for Emily as well. What about the other fabric, you ask? It is going towards a very special (and frugal) project, indeed! More on that soon…..
And…….there is a fun giveaway starting tomorrow, so be sure to check back!
Adorable! How long did that take you to make? You make it seem efortless!
That is so pretty. If only I knew how to sew.
Beautiful!
Excellent work – can't wait to see what else you're doing!
I LOVE it! I'm so jealous of people that can sew! My sewing ability ends with duct-taping hems! LOL!

@ aprilfoolwed — This was very quick, and the entire dress was done in one afternoon!
@ Christy, Booklover1212 & Green Mamma — You don't know how to sew?? That is a sin! You guys are missing out! Hmmm…. I might have to do something about that……. maybe an online workshop? Wouldn't that be fun??
Adorable dress and adorable baby!
Beautiful! Both the dress and the model!
So cute! Bedsheets are the best source for cheap fabric.

This dress is SO adorable! I wish I was better with my sewing machine so that I could tackle something other than lounge shorts and bandana dresses lol. Great work!
