Sewing mamas!Calling all AmityMama's who like to sew! Do you make quilts, clothes, diapers, bags? Do you love to run your fingers through fiber? Can't get enough just sewing, but want to talk about it too? Come on in!
I found the best peasant dress pattern sns! ***and it's FS, it's too big for her :(**
I believe its Simplicity 5118, whips together pretty quickly. No modeling pic, maybe later, Summer is napping. (She needed a nap severely! )
Thanks for looking!

ooh thats very pretty! Funny, I just got that same pattern..I skipped parts though & made it one pc instead of the two..I need to try it like that I really like it!
LOL, I skipped parts too! I didn't do the bias tape casing on the arms, I just sewed the elastic on above the hem with a triple zig zag stitch. And I used foe on the neckiline rather than making a casing and then sewing on decorative trim. I think next time I make it, I'll make it a one piece as well......
I used a similar pattern once, but I did do a bias tape casing inside for both the sleeves and the mid-section and it took so long for a peasant top that I swore I'd never do it again, lol. It did come out cute though. I think it's the one DD is wearing in my sig picture actually, lol.
I love the fabric you used. It'll be so cute on her!

Thanks ladies, but alas it's too big, Summer is too tiny. GRRRRR, I really hate the big 3 patterns!!!! I'm gonna have to size it down quite a bit and make her another one, luckily I have more of that fabric left.
It's more of a 2T/3T fit. (The pattern called it a 1/2 size, so I thought it would have a small bit of growing room for her, boy was I wrong....lol
I've made both the size 2 and the size 4 in that pattern, and the fit has been right on. I don't know why yours turned out so big. Did you take the full 5/8" seam allowance? To get the fit right you have to. I've never had a big 3 pattern turn out huge, I usually only have to shorten them.
