Weekend project...

The Inspiration... This fabric is stock #54038-14 by Moda Home called Storytime in Robin's Egg Blue.

The Pattern (s)...

I call it my Bananafana-ized Pink Fig Dress. ;) I used The Cuppy Cake Dress pattern by Pink Fig for the overall base of the dress. Then added some of the design elements from the Once Upon a Time skirt by Bananafana.


The Pink Fig pattern has shirring for the back of the dress and I am not a big fan of shirring. Don't get me wrong... I think it is cute, but I don't care to do it myself. SOOO... I skipped that part of the pattern and made a more tailored back and Bananafana-ized it by adding a big bow that wraps across the front of the dress.






A little yoyo hair clip to match...


Paige now has a cute new dress... I think she likes it... what do you think?
