I was inspired by material that was intended for curtains (but it didn’t work out) and my daughter’s doll. I added the butterflies to look like they were swirling around the skirt. For the shirt, I just added a ruffle of the same fabric, shirred the bottom and the cut off sleeves.

this is really cute. i love the colour and type of material and the butterflies look so cute. its also really clever how you’ve shiirred the arms and bottom of the shirt, it gives it a new life.
