Patchwork Dress

As you may have figured out, I love to sew from reclaimed materials. This patchwork dress, that I made for E, is one example. While most of the fabrics in the dress were actually 'new', they were all tiny pieces left over from other projects. I kept them all in a box until I had enough to make the dress. I finished it some time ago, but it was a bit too big at first. Kids grow pretty quickly, so E's getting plenty of wear from it now. There are some licensed fabrics in the mix and E likes to point out "Pooh" and "Piglet" as she's getting dressed.

  1. Love the dress. Very 'country chic'. Perhaps E should get involved in choosing the scraps next time. Would probably be all Dora materials.
