Speaking of fabric, the wonderfully sweet Trudi sent me this for Juliette, it couldn't be more perfect for her. I have never met a girl who is so mad on moving vehicles, in particular heavy plant and construction vehicles and trains!
The intended recipient was so pleased with her new top that she put it on and promptly went straight out to a party to show it off (again, this is why I am jealous of her, oh to have such a social life!)

Earlier this week I refashioned an old skirt of mine into another dress for Juliette. Same pattern this time with no modifications. I just loved the colours in my skirt but it was a really bad style for me and I never wore it.

She choose the glitter buttons herself, it took a while! So happy to see the fabric on my daughter, if only I could stop her growing........

Doesn't it look fabulous in that fabric! and I really love your alterations to the pattern too!, don't expect her social life to change too much, mine is still a little socialite even now!
Oh Emily they are both so cute!! She looks adorable and so happy, quite rightly!
she is so bloody cute!!!!!!!!
Those are lovely dresses and she is clearly a natural model.
What a cutie! Fabulous makes Emily
Lovely, but yes, they grow, so that's my excuse not to!!
Yes, sewing little things for those little people in our lives is so quick and satisfying!
Gorgeous model, too!
Aww, I'm sure we could find you a party to wear a dump truck dress to... ;o)
I love the addition of the long sleeves and collar!
Gorgeous dress on a gorgeous wee girl. I made clothes for the girls occasionally when they were little. I was heart broken when they grew out of the dress stage.
So cute!
Love the long sleeves! Was it easy to draft them? I'd love to make a long sleeve version for my wee monkey. She has a robot version with the cap sleeves, but I can see how long sleeves would be great and those look fabulous.
This will be my first project but as it is fall in San Francisco, I'd like to add sleeves, too!
