Cottage Mama Ruby Dress pattern review and giveaway!

***This giveaway is now closed. See the winner below!***

My good pal Lindsay over at The Cottage Home has just come out with a new batch of gorgeous sewing patterns! When she asked me to be a part of her sewing tour, of course I said yes! Then I had to choose. :} The ruffles had me at hello on the Ruby Ruffle dress, even though just the name alone almost got me on the Charlotte Apron dress! ;)

Her patterns are always fabulous-very well written and I always end up with well constructed clothing when I sew with them. I love that she adds a much loved recipe of hers with each pattern-such a thoughtful and nice touch!

For Sadie's Ruby Ruffle dress, I used  Lizzy House Outfoxed, Pearl Bracelet Light Orange from my sponsor, Fabric Worm, and the middle panel is from who knows where? Sorry! The fit was great, I think I cut out a 3T, and it should fit Sadie for awhile, since she only grows up! (and even then only once in awhile)
