well, the last dress was NOT a hit. the Bean loved it, and was all excited to wear it, put it on quite happily, posed for pics (as seen a little while ago), and then realized that it had no pockets.
instant tantrum. but the print is so busy and pretty that my scraps-large-enough-to-become-pockets clash.

| pockets! |
 |
| up close, you can see the shirred neckline. |
So here’s the new dress. I’m loving this VERY simple dress pattern I drafted last night.
 |
| pockets are meant to be filled. by anything handy. like rocks. |
In my head, it’s already available in multiple sizes, and I’m struggling with naming it. the only name that works right now is the Very Simple Dress.
 |
| lots and lots of rocks. even if they are heavy and rip the pocket. |
That’s not a horrible name, though, right?
 |
| because pockets are for filling. |
Very Simple Dress. start to finish (cutting and all), well under an hour.
 |
| dress success |
I think it’s going to be my new go-to gift for all little girls.
