Sundress for my Eldest Daughter


This is Oliver + S's Birthday Party Dress.  My daughter picked the fabric from our local quilting shop herself and chose the ribbon.  It is still a little cold around here to wear a dress like this, but it is nice to have it finished well before summer.  She is pleased with it and has been sporting around the house in it.


This pattern was a little more difficult to sew than some of the other Oliver + S dresses because you have to be so precise about cutting it out and meticulous about transferring all the markings.  Otherwise, the sewing part is straightforward.  And, as ever, the instructions and diagrams are excellent.
