Description

This is a little dress that I made on a whim last night for the daughter of one of my colleagues, it is made with a free pattern from the lovely Oliver + S website who make sewing patterns for children and is called the Popover dress!

I think my favourite part is the jumbo Ric-Rac trim though – I’m a sucker for a bit of contrast trimming :-)

Material Notes

I used some lovely pink micro-dot Jacquard poplin and some Alexander Henry ‘Birdseed’ print in the pink colourway, both of which I bought from my favourite fabric shop Fabrics Galore in Clapham/Battersea.

    it’s so cute and has lots of chic. I’m planning to make my 8 month niece some cloths… hopefully I’ll manage to do that soon. Maybe I’ll check out that web site you mentioned
