More For Spring




No, now don't get too excited. This isn't going to be a new pattern. Mainly, because I just used two existing patterns to create this one and so can you. The bodice is "Lindsay" and the skirt is "Miranda". I omitted the sash, but I added tons of gorgeous lace. So, here's a hint. If you wanted to recreate this dress I would HIGHLY recommend using one of your JoAnn's 40% off coupons for the lace. Because that stuff rarely goes on sale and when you are buying a lot of lace like this 40% off will really help...trust me! For this dress I just used really nice Kona cotton in white and lavender and the crinoline underneath is also in lavender. Wouldn't this be perfect for Easter or an upcoming wedding!? Hope you liked this idea...

So very pretty, Dawn. Thank you for sharing the making of it and idea for the lace. I'm starting to incorporate your pleats in other patterns - I just love the look of the pleats.

I am definately getting ideas from this one. I love the pleats in your garments. wasnt't sure at first, but really do like them. Even a little jacket would look cute with this one too.
