I had every intention of blogging my Christmas crafts as I completed things, before Christmas. But here we are and I'm just starting. At least it is still Christmas season, right?
I actually had Elena's Christmas dress finished, all but the last bit of hand sewing, done before December 1.
The pattern is the
Oliver + S Bubble Dress. It's the second time I make a dress from this pattern, the
first was for
Elena's baptism. The skirt looks so long that when I made the first one for her I actually cut off about five inches. Then when I put it on her, five minutes before (or maybe after) I was supposed to leave the house you could see her diaper out the bottom. I almost did it again this time, but resisted the urge, and in the end it was perfect.
The fabric came from
Superbuzzy a long time ago. I think it's a Tefle from
Kokka. The buttons are really lovely too, although it is hard to tell from the picture. They belonged to an aunt of a friend of mine who used to have a sewing business.
Here's a little sneak peak at Lucia's dress, that post is coming up next.
Too cute!!
