I did a little garment sewing this weekend! I was practically jumping out of my seat when Rae asked if I would test the big girl version of her Geranium dress (which is a child version of her Washi dress). I had been eagerly awaiting the Geranium in sizes for older girls.
I expect this dress to get a lot of wear so I took the time to make french seams on the skirt.
I also fully lined the yoke.
I just love the little notch detail in the neckline.
It adds a bit of style without being "over the top" for young girls.
Miss P is thrilled with the new dress in this fun orange print from Jennifer Paganelli. This is the size six with a little extra length.
The making of the dress went so well that Miss P is making HERSELF a top from the same pattern. She chose which variations she wanted to make and is well on her way.
I let her use my big bernina for this one. She thinks the bernina is really cool and more fun to sew on than the featherweight. She likes that I can set it for slow sewing and there is no danger of accidentally going too fast.
Stay tuned for Miss P's top AND the release of the Geranium for older girls. You will love all the variations you can get with this pattern.
