I had picked up this pattern, McCalls 6060, the other day to make some little summer dresses for Mackenzie. The more I thought about it, I wanted to make a dress out of some of the blue/green prints I had bought the other day. So I picked up another yard of one of those prints too.
And I whipped up this little lovely today. What a great pattern! It went together easily. It has a zipper in the side seam which also went in no problem. I love that the entire bodice is lined, no facings poking out, no raw edges (except in the skirt. When I make this again I will use french seams there).
Joanns was out of the polka dot, so I used a little bit of what I had bought the other day. I love the contrast it adds! & check out how cute the back is...
All of you with little girls to sew for should check out this pattern. It also has tops & capris to make. I made a size 2, but the pattern comes in 1-3 and 4-6. Very sweet in these prints. I think it looks like something my mom might have made me back in the 60s! Happy Easter everyone. I hope the sun is shining where you are.

This is a sweet little dress! I've seen several patterns made up recently, that I would really like to make up for my niece, or my step-niece, too.
Love your fabrics and the little dress is just so sweet.
What a sweet little dress. When my girls were little I loved to make them little sun dresses.
I love it!! It is so retro looking! I wish I was good at sewing clothes. If I send you fabric would you make one for my Punk?? LOL!!
We should have gone to Frisco...they had 21 different DS prints!!
