Patriotic dress for Lena





I love this dress. I am so excited about it. I wanted to make a red, white and blue dress for Lena for upcoming patriotic holidays. Plus, I found this darling fabric a few weeks ago. Then as I was deciding what pattern to use, I ended up envisioning what I wanted in my mind and of course there is no pattern for that. So I made it up. But it actually turned out! Yay! This was a time consuming dress because of the gathers and the fact that I had no pattern to follow. But it was so nice because no set-in sleeves and no closures! I am going to have to go with this peasant top style more often. Lena loves it too!
