So psyched to be a part of the Pretty in Peplum blog tour!
I couldn’t wait to sew up this dress. Charlotte has a similar one from H&M and I always meant to copy it for the other girls, and then Abby went and made this awesome pattern.
I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again, I love when people do the hard work for you. 😉
Anyways! We also got to choose our fabric from my favorite online knit shop-Girl Charlee!
I chose this cute white and black polka dot ponte de roma knit. It’s a great weight for this pattern.
I made a 5T and the size is pretty spot on!
I feel like the waist is a teensy bit low on Sadie, but she will probably sprout up soon and it will fit perfectly.
She grows UP only, and even then not that often.
I chose the elbow length sleeves, LOVE them.
Somehow my 6 year old looks like a pre-tween. Pre-teen? Tween? ahhh!
stop growing up! Just 1/2 hour after this shoot she lost one of her top front teeth.
Then another 3 days later. That’s 4 she’s lost so far! My big first grader.
Be sure to stop by the rest of the tour! it’s bound to be adorable!

wow, that pattern sure makes the girls look so sweet, but also soo grown-up…
Oh my GOSH! That pattern is going on my must-make list!
OK- I am in LOVE with your polka dot version! I might just have to make another one…
Wow she looks so grown up in this dress! The dress is gorgeous! Wish i could pull off a dress like that 😉
One of my favorite outfits that I wore in the 80’s, only the top was white with red polka dots and the skirt was red with white polka dots! I love the black and white you’ve chosen and she looks so ‘sophisticated’!! Wonderful work!
aw jess, she is so cute. and isn’t it crazy how different these first graders look once they’re toothless?? i kinda love it. such a sweet dress on her too!
She looks like such a little lady Jess! So adorable!!! Thanks so much for joining in on the tour!
Those polka dots are darling!
