Pink and Blue Baby Dresses

Victoria's Christmas Dress, 1999

Victoria was two years old when I made her this dress for Christmas.  Someone had given me a prom dress to remake -- why did everyone think I liked to do that?! -- and with careful cutting, using nearly every last scrap of fabric, this is what I came up with.  Cutting apart clothing to revamp it into something else is not the easiest job in the world.  Still, I often wound up with a lovely little number sewn from beautiful fabric that I would not otherwise have been able to afford, so I was thankful for that, at least.
