An “Anne of Green Gables” dress made for my daughter for her school’s Book Week parade. I used Simplicity 2843 for the costume, and my girl LOVES IT! Well, who wouldn’t – I probably would have sold my Barbie Campervan for such a dress when I was her age ;)

Anyway, you can check it out more on my blog, Jorth!

    Just love the dress!! Anne is a great story. My daughter would have loved this dress when she was that age.

    I LOVE Anne! And that dress! Well done! You can reward yourself with a tall glass of raspberry cordial, lol!

    So cute and retro! I would have loved having such a dress when I was a little girl, too!
