I've made some progress on my daughter's dance dress for the upcoming Scandinavian festival being held nearby in a few weeks. I had this grand idea, but decided it wouldn't match the other kids in the group so I made some modifications.
The dress is based off of the following pattern, upper right corner. McCalls 9043 that I had in my possession already. I think I must have picked it up at a garage sale.
I added some black loopy trim on the bottom, folded over the top of the bib (it was too high on Meri) and will add trim to that too. I also wove red ribbon thru the black trim. Meri was impressed and she likes the idea of a trim choker too, but I nixed that idea.
Does it look Scandinavian-ish to you? As soon as this is done, I need to get some red fabric and start on the vest. She'll wear a white tshirt under the dress.
