Baby clothes time! These little dresses were so fun to make. I told yall about how the smocking is pretty mindless and super addicting. The dress construction part is the complete opposite. I almost pulled my hair out on the first one trying to line up seams, attach lace, hand sew the hem and neck and put in the #$#@%^ placket strip...but when it was finished, I was so proud of it! I immediately started on the green one. I love green and little girls in green are so sweet...a nice change from pink pink pink everything. We're not going to do a lot of pink around our house. I'm sick of pink already and she's not even here yet.
Some pics...
The great thing about this bishop dress pattern is that you can change it around to a couple of different styles - bubbles, dress with angel sleeves, bigger dresses or smaller for babies, long sleeves, short sleeves, nice clothes, play clothes...etc. The next one I'm doing is the angel sleeve style and is more of a play dress for when she's a toddler.

how on EARTH do you do that? i really really want to learn. those are SO cute!
Those are awesome! I love the green one!
My god! Those look so great, and I don't believe the smocking is mindless. It looks so complicated. I too love the green. You chose a gorgeous shade, and I can't wait to see the other styles you do. I can't wait to see you either. I saw the baby bump in Holland's pics!!! So cute!
What pattern did you use? Where can I buy it? Thanks
Hey Lauren! I used the Chery Williams Baby Bishops pattern. You can buy it at any sewing boutique website. Here's one of our local stores where you can find it: http://www.peanutbutter-n-jellykids.com/shop/cherywilliamspatterns00.htm
