I wanted to make a dress version of my pattern for Willow and Co., Mulberry tunic, for a while. I thought it would be an easy remix, and the result will be cute. I was right. :)
The turquoise fabric is a leftover piece from the sample I made for the collection (you can purchase it here). The embroidered fabric is from a towel I got from an old lady at the garage sale. It was brand new, used as part of a décor. The lady was super sweet and had quite a few embroidered things. I got them all. :)
The modifications were easy to make. I cut the lower front bodice and the back bodice where the hem curves and added the length I wanted. I also added tiny ties at the back. I am not sure if I like it with the ties or without the ties.

The child absolutely refused to give up her sippy cup. Believe me, I tried to pry her hands open. No luck. You win some you lose some. :)
Off she goes. The dress is easy and comfortable. I am quite pleased with the result.
How adorable! I love this remix, and the embroidery is the perfect touch! I'll remember this to make it for my baby girl!
ReplyDeleteThe Mulberry as a dress? That is so great! I love the embroidery and I wish we had garage sales where I live...
