Custom Dresses for Little Darlings

A while back I had a notion that I would absolutely never be able to sew all the Kaffe Fassett fabrics in my stash into quilts. Just humanly impossible! But, I do have granddaughters and I can make dresses and they are only little for such a short time - so it seemed to make a lot of sense to get busy making dresses for them.


 I delivered this little dress to Cate on Sunday. Hopefully I can get DD Erin to send a picture of her wearing it.

This little dress (below) was made for Reagan, and I do have a picture of her wearing it, although you don't see much of the dress! Reagan's dress has 2 pockets. Down at the bottom of this post I describe another dress in the same fabric with only one pocket - that one is for Annie.


I just finished this one below also for Reagan. I think this one might be my favorite. Those deep KF blue fabrics are the best! 

Little Annie got one just like Reagan's but with just one pocket. I had just enough of the two fabrics left to squeeze out a size 1 and only 1 pocket. She (hopefully) will be ready to wear it next summer.


 Emma's fiance Glen has a daughter (bonus granddaughter!), and she gets a dress, too! I had a sundress pattern that she liked, so I whipped this up for Harper. I hope to get it to her soon. And I will need her to try it on before I secure those straps.

I will resume quilting activities soon. Come on back and see what I've been stitching since finishing these dresses!

Happy Quilting, Friends!
