Emma's birthday was celebrated this last weekend and since I couldn't be there, I sent her this outfit. It is all from scraps of fabric that I have had on hand for quite some time.
The back of the dress fastned with flower buttons.
Close up of the sleeve with the decorative edging that I used with my serger.
The top part of the dress.
A little bow detail for the middle of the bodice.
The close up of the ruffles. Melissa and I didn't agree on the finish. She wanted a narrow hem as per the instructions, but I wanted to push the envelope and do a finished hem with the serger. I was very happy that I did, even though it was hard going against her ideas. I love how the white contrasts so well in the ruffles.

The dress.
Spankies to cover the diaper.
The hair bows. Yeah I wish I had some wired ribbon that would work.
The finished product on Emma Marie.
Beautiful! I like the white/peach contrast, too. Very pretty.
