Pattern Description:

The Bella Dress is a special dress for the little girl in your life. With an appliqu flower motif and a pleat that looks like the stem of the flower it is a cute addition to any little girl's wardrobe.

Your PDF eBook tutorial includes all the patterns and instructions you need for both the dress and the appliqu flowers. If you don't have much sewing experience you'll find that making the flower from felt is quite easy as it can be straight stitched around and felt is very forgiving for crooked sewing.

You can use ready made bias binding for this dress which can be purchased easily or I also give you instructions for making your own without any special tools.

The pattern is multi-sized and comes in sizes 2,3,4,5,6,7,8.

For a Summer dress you could use light to medium weight cottons in a rainbow of colors. This dress is also perfect for Winter as it could be worn over a turtleneck and could be made in lightweight wool or corduroy.

Once you have ordered you will receive a PDF eBook with easy to follow instructions which include color photos with step by step instructions. It will also include a full sized pattern including all pieces which will print on your regular home computer on either letter or A4 paper. All the measurements and instructions in my patterns are in both metric and imperial so you don't need to worry about conversions no matter where you live.

All my patterns can be made with or without a serger and are designed for sewers who do not have much experience.

Items made using the patterns in my eBooks may be used for personal use only at this stage. If you do wish to sell items made with my patterns please email me at mychildhoodtreasures@gmail.com so we can discuss it further.
