My mom made me adorable dresses when I was a child (I'll post a picture of such a dress very soon ;)) I think that's where I got my love for petticoats and big dresses.
The dress I finished a couple of months ago but couldn't blog about it because I wanted the dress to be a surprise.
The pattern I used was Burda 9802
Just now, while writing this and looking for a picture of the pattern, I realise I made a mistake. I thought the pattern didn't include seam allowances so I added the seam allowances. That explains why the dress looked so big. But children grow so that won't be such a big problem ;).
I have to keep this in mind when I use an other pattern of Burda. I'm used to using patterns of Burda Style, and these patterns doesn't include seam allowances.
Below you can see my result. I love it! It's such a cute dress and bloomers!

You may recognise the fabric. I made my cherry shirt out of the remnants of this baby dress.
Have a great Sunday evening!
Oh, my...!!! This is sooooo cute. I hope the baby's mother thanked you enough for these wonderful gifts, for sure they are made with love. I wish you Happy New Year!
