Itty Bitty Dress

I've been eyeing this dress pattern for quite some time. It looked so cute and easy and, best of all, free. I finally had an excuse to sew a tiny girl dress for a friend of my mine who is having a baby girl in a few weeks. I dug through my pink fabric, came up with some fun polka dots and strips and was finished with the dress in about 1 1/2 hours. So easy, so cute and so fun.
I made the dress reversible. I love doing this for two reasons - two dress in one and all your seams are enclosed, no annoying thread hanging down past your hem. I made the stripped skirt section longer than the dots and then folded it up and over to create the border along the bottom of the dress. I added some ric rac at the waist seam and also on the border seam.
She also has a toddler version and I can't wait to try it out for Miss K. Although from the pictures on her Flikr group, I'd make the straps shorter for the toddler dress. They look a bit too floppy for my taste, not cute little ties like in the baby dress.
Try this out, it is so easy and cute!
