Little Girl's Sewing

I am continuing with posting the outfits I've made for DD. She, btw, has recovered from her surgery and is all better. We don't know if the surgery resolved the underlying issue, and will not know until end of August.
So, let's begin...
Striped dolman sleeve tee - selfdrafted.
The striped tee is self-drafted and made from lightweight cotton jersey.
I made for myself the same design tee, from the same fabric.

The necklace, btw, is her "pink pearls necklace," and she styled it with this outfit herself.

Linen Tunic, Burda WOF 2008-08-134, s.104:

Well-drafted pattern, the back closure is a line of buttons down the CB.

I don't know if you can tell from the photos, but the stripe has a tiny metalic thread woven into it. From magazine:


Burda WOF 139-07-2009: Wrap dress; made from lightweight denim.

The dress, in itself, is a very plain design, which is why, I think, the magazine suggests embellishing with crystals at the bottom hem. I chose to do a chiffon flower (from Dillard’s) instead; it is more my daughter, I think. However, my only advice, make it in a fun print or you will have to embellish. The flower, btw, is detachable.
