A dress for Rubielee

The below dress is for my little cousin who should join us in the big wide world any day soon.

My cousins were born (from memory) at 12 pounds and 14 pounds so I made this dress a small instead of a newborn in case 😉

It is a simple dress in concept, but there is a lot of little fiddly work there and a lot of maths! The rickrack is sewn on with a zig zag stitch so it won’t curl and I also worked out the math to get all the ruffles correct.

By the way, it sits and flows better when not put flat.
