This is the Orange Crush Dress! It will be making its way to South Africa soon! 😀 But before that it will be my entry for Project Run & Play Week 2 Stripes and Polka Dots Challenge. (To see all the upcoming challenges click HERE )
Thankfully it has been extremely warm here lately so Cailey didn’t have to freeze her tushy off for the pictures! 😉
This dress has A LOT of pleats!! The front and back sides are both pleated at the neck.
And then there are alllll the pleats at the bottom! 😉
It was a super fun dress to make and I will be sharing the tutorial with you next week! 😀
In the meantime, I will be linking up at Project Run & Play as soon as the Week 2 Challenge opens. LOL
OHH!! I will also be sharing a pattern test for SquigglyTwigs Designs sometime this week!!! YAY!!!! 😀
After that I will be hard at work on my boy’s look for the Week 3 Challenge. I think I have my fabric choices pinned down but other than that I am SOOOOOOO not sure of what I’ll be doing! LOL Not good!! Not good at all!

My church just had many ladies sew similar dresses to send to Africa. What a fun project for someone who can sew! 🙂 The dress is adorable!

Cute and fun 🙂 I love the colors in the stripe pattern and the bright orange polka dots. She looks like she’ll have lots of fun wearing it. Great job.
Thank you so much!! 🙂
She doesn’t get to keep it, though… LOL It is going to South Africa. 😉
Lovely, lovely colors as always. I was going to say your little one is going to have so many cute clothes when this competition is over, but I just read your response that this one is going to Aftrica. Well, someone very special in Africa is going to look really adorable! 🙂
