Easter Dress for Miss Olivia



Here are a few pictures of Olivia in her new Easter dress. Her dress is made from a voile with burnt out dots. Since the dress is voile, I decided to make coloured slips to go underneath. Using the fabric as inspiration for colour for the slips, I chose an apple green and a violet colour. Her green slip is finished, but the violet one is only cut out. Olivia is wearing her Edwardian coat from last Easter.

I will blog more on the dress and pattern later. For now, here are some pictures from the day, with Olivia wearing her new dress. It's wrinkled as we took pictures after church. You can see the change in shoes and the hole in the tights, after an afternoon of playing outside with jump ropes and crawling around on the floor playing with her Playmobile, that is nestled underneath the piano. It's a great place for a a little girl to play with kings, queens and fancy castles. :)

This is a new pattern released in the last three weeks. I wonder if anyone can guess the pattern?! :) Review to come.......








Good Night,

Carol

Ooh, is it a new Oliver + S? Oh, yes, just checked. ;) It's so cute! She looks like she stepped right out of the '30s!

I particularly like that hole in her stocking! She's not afraid to have fun in her new clothes.
