Little Autumn Prairie Smock


Here is a dress I made for the pumpkin earlier this summer. Now that it is officially autumn, I feel OK about her wearing it, even if it's still getting up to 90 degrees some days(torture!!).

I wish I could show you how it looked when I first cut it out. I didn't use a pattern (as usual), and I literally cut it all out in two pieces and sewed them together. It looked like a paper doll dress! But I adjusted the neckline a little, added some binding, and it turned out quite cute, if I do say so myself!



I love how the back is different from the front!

No, that is not my dead grass that I have been too lazy busy to water for weeks....what kind of person do you think I am??

    Could she be any cuter?! I love that dress! I am working on some clothes for my little girl too, but I doubt it will turn out like yours. You are so awesome! -Kelsee

    That is THE most precious dress! I love the fabric (and the coming and going of it). And there's something just so very cute about little girls in boots! Care to make another one for my granddaughter? :)
