A Christmas dress completed
I have finished a Christmas dress for Clare (Christmas in that she’ll get it for Christmas or wear it at Christmas, not that it is particularly reminiscent of Christmas by being all red and green and so on – okay, now I’m blithering).
The pattern is New Look 6477, view F. The fabrics are Kaffe Fassett. I love the colour combinations! It’s a very easy mock wrap halter-neck design. The back is elasticised.
This only took me about two hours to make, including cutting out! Yay!
Edited to add: Here’s a photo of her wearing it!
What a lovely lovely creation! I’m sure Clare would look extra adorable in it! =)
That’s just DIVINE! Love it!!
I think this is my most favorite Claire outfit yet! What a great pattern. I have decided that in ’08 I will be sewing more outfits for my little one than ever…so many great patterns….free blogland patterns too. Just love them all!
Gorgeous dress! Would love to have one in my size ;o)
This is so sweet. Beautiful choice of fabrics. I have put New Look 6477 on my shopping list as I’m all but resigned to going back to sewing clothes for my girls. There is so much clothing available in the shops, but it seems to be such poor quality these days. Wash it once & it has shrunk/stretched/lost bits etc. I am inspired by this outfit – thank you for showing it to us all.
Gorgeous fabrics and a great little dress 🙂
I recently bought this pattern Lara and you’ve inspired me to get movin’ with it. Love the fabric choice.
Hi Lara
I bought a bag from Pink Lemonade Boutique in the Kaffe Fassett material, its so nice to see it made into something just as beautiful – you clever thing!
