This is a really fun dress, did you use a pattern? If so are you willing to share it? :)
Thanks!

im sorry no, i didnt use a pattern. but it is really really easy. just make the straps so they fit you and add a rectangle for the dress part, gathering it together a litte in the front, and then another rectangle with pleats for the lower part (or ruffles or whatever you want)
i hope this is of any help

if you’re looking for a pattern that is exactly the same, check out the book chic and simple sewing which has a dress pattern that is identical. i’ve made one and it’s a piece of cake for a beginner! the author has images here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/venicegirl/2271803582/in/pool-chicandsimplesewing

O my, this is ADORABLE!!!!! Did you use a pattern for the body or just cut two rectangles? My daughter is going to die if I get this right!!!!!

its just two rectangles ;) the lower one is a bigger, to make pleats.

So cute! I really love it. Do you think it could be simple enough for me? I would like to try with a fabric similar to the one you’ve used!

oh yeah, go ahead and try! its pretty easy. just the gathering may take some time if you havent done it that often

That’s very cute!

I love this! I’m somewhat of a novice, so I don’t know how successfully I’d be able to make this but I really want to try. Is there any chance you would be able to provide more detailed instructions? :P Also, did you do a lining? If so, what kind of fabric would you suggest?

did you read a comment of mine below? i described a little how to do it.. does it help?
Nov 13, 2009, 01.10 AMby Brooke Dillon
I did have a read, makes a bit more sense to me now. Wasn’t too sure with the body how to go about it, I think the gathering at the top (at the band around the bust) is going to be my biggest challenge! :)

no i didnt. it was really easy though. just measure a string around your bust, add strings for the strips and for the lower part two tubes with pleats if you like. for the sleeves i just drew a half circle in the lenght of the strips.

That’s a beautiful top! it looks really good
