Princess Fiona's - A summer dress




I have been informed/instructed by Bug about Princess Fiona needing some summer dresses. This is the first one that came out of the sweatshop studio. Bug is of course expecting a couple more.

I still had a few scraps of the toile blouse I recycled into a dress for Bug.




Just about enough for a dress for Fiona. I went for a simple pillowcase dress to avoid having to deal with sleeves. It turned just a bit short so I ended up adding a ruffle at the bottom

And for Bug's convenience (and mine) I used a fabric covered elastic instead of a ribbon tie. Easy to put on and off without mommy's help. Bug loves it "Oh! La jolie robe" she went. I think Fiona will get more dresses on the same basic design. It's so cute I'd make some for Bug too but her closet is already full of pretty dresses thanks to Grandma.
