A friend of ours just recently had a little baby girl. I jumped on the opportunity to indulge in a pink project. I found this adorable apple corduroy at Joann's and thought that it would make a fun autumn dress for the new little lady.
I used Rae's free Itty Bitty Baby Dress pattern. Because this would be a winter baby, I thought that I'd have to make some coordinating long sleeve onesies to go with the little dress.
I used Rit dyes to color a couple of packs of onesies.
I experimented with a couple of dyes to get a range of colors. I have some green onesies on hand for a couple of little boys that are on their way.
I also whipped up a pair of these baby booties to go with the new dress. I had intended on making a pair of ruffle bum leggings, but my sewing machine is on the fritz. I might have to send them off later.
I'm linking up here. Thanks for reading.

Adorable!!! I love that fabric, it catches my eye every time I go to Joann!
ReplyDeleteAdorable!!! I love the fabric (and I LOVE corduroy dresses on little girls). How was the itty bitty baby dress pattern? I keep meaning to make one of those for my cousin's baby... but I'm not very good at sewing clothes! :) It's on my to do list!
ReplyDeletePerfect outfits! I love the colors of the onesie. I was also eyeing that fabric at Joann's.
ReplyDeleteToo bad I'm not having a girl! These are so cute!
ReplyDeleteI love those booties! And thanks for the link to the dress pattern.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lucky little girl! Love the apple corduroy. And I adore the colors you chose to die the onesies... perfect! The appliqued apples are a sweet touch. And those booties look store-bought... amazing work!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute!! I just bought some of this fabric last week to make a skirt for my daughter!
ReplyDeleteLove those appliques too, what a great idea!! How on earth did you do those booties? I thought they were store bought till I read a little farther!! I'm your newest follower visiting from Whatever Goes Wednesday.
What an adorable outfit! And you did a fantastic job of getting the right shades of onesies to match that fantastic apple corduroy. Oh, and the booties are just the perfect finishing touch. Lucky little girl, so stylish so young. :)
ReplyDeleteToo cute! I'm almost jealous I don't have a baby girl to dress! The new mommy will love them. I'm visiting with TRH, hope you visit me too!
