An outfit I made for Sister Suzy about 20 years ago! I took three day off work, at the time, to make her six outfits so she would have plenty of cute clean clothes when she first arrived at the in-laws house.
We were cleaning the shed out of stuff from the in-laws that had migrated to our house and I found the outfit lying in a magazine rack that looked like a cradle. The mice had a good time chewing out one side of the top.
Sister Suzy had trouble believing she was that little. She was also fascinated with the size of the shoes. I had to chuckle when she was flabbergasted about her wearing a dress every day.
I went looking for the pattern in my pattern drawer but didn't find it. I bet the pattern is in some box rolled up with some fabric waiting for me to get back to it and make another one. She's a bit too big for the pattern now, LOL, so I will have to wait until somebody has a little girl to use the pattern again.
That's the most blog worthy thing I've done in a while. Haven't felt like sewing and knitting on my sweater is progressing very slowly. However the computer card-game hearts is sucking up a bunch of my time when we are not cleaning out storage rooms and sheds.
Have a good day!

Oh my goodness, I remember when I sewed all my daughter's clothes. She was little like that and it was so much fun. Actually even as she got older I knew that if it was pink, red, or frilly she'd love it. Funny how her tastes changed when she grew up. I only wish I had a reminder like you do.
Yup, my daughter's taste in clothing has changed a lot, too, since she can choose what she wants to wear. Ah, the days of cute dresses and pretty shoes, but then, they grow up to be such beautiful women.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!
