A while ago a lovely relative of mine who has given up sewing gave me an enormous packing box full of fabric. Another reason to do this project is that I need to do some serious stash busting! I pulled out a bright and colourful floral tropical type print and used the gorgeous infant peasant dress pattern and tutorial from Sew Much Ado to make two of these little dresses -
There is still plenty of time left in April to make a dress for this project - the aim is to get to 100 dresses and I'm sure Hopeful Threads will easily make this target! If you have a spare hour and a pillowcase or maybe you need to do some stash busting too, make sure you pop over to Hopeful Threads and check out the details of the April project. Kristy has also put together this great list of free dress tutorials, which is a handy resource to pin or bookmark!
If you do make one, I'd love to see it! Post a link in my comments or on my Facebook page!
I love it!!! Thanks so much for participating and helping spread the word!
