The pattern is McCall's 5791. I made a size "large". That means I don't exactly know what size it is, but I would guess it's somewhere between 9 and 12 months. (I tried to compare it to this darling 7 month old, and she decided it was fun to hold the hanger and wave it up and down. So stinkin' cute!)
This was my first project with piping, and I just adore the end result. It may become a fixture in my sewing projects. :o) It also provided the perfect opportunity to add more contrast giving the dress more interest.
It went pretty smoothly, and I was very surprised and pleased with the scores I got. All-in-all a good experience, though it was a little stressful to finish the day before competing!
Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone! Hope you are having fun and wearing green! :o)
It's darling! Happy Saint Patrick's to you too, Kelsie. =)
ReplyDeleteIt turned out so sweet! I love how piping finishes off a project! I wish I didn't get into such a hurry and would use it more often.
