A New Dress for Anne




This was a quick project! I had purchased the material for this dress several months ago, but, had put off sewing the dress until this morning. After measuring Anne and finding ribbon to match it, it took me about an hour to make it.


I love it!


Anne loves it, too!


I'm not certain about the ribbon I selected for the straps. I want to add something behind it, like a thicker, wider ribbon, so that it doesn't cut into Anne's shoulders. What do you think?


The best thing about this dress is that I made it a little bigger than she needs it to be right now, so that she can wear it next summer, too.

I like the dress a lot. The straps are cute, but if you had wider pink ribbon I think that would look nice too. The other thing might be to use the material for thick straps, but just put ribbon on the edges. Just a suggestion.

Cute!! Make wider straps out of the material?
