Morning folks! So I was a little nervous, but very excited to try my hands at making a dress for the Marshmallow using a pattern!

I really loved the sweet vintage look of “C” but I didn’t want the straps to tie at the back….I figured how hard could that be to figure out?

So I followed the pattern, and cut all the pieces….but when came time to read the instructions I got a little frustrated….okay, A LOT frustrated! After ripping the seams open for the fourth time, I decided to just do my own thing and wing it!!

I love that the dress is double layered and that there was is one visible ending seam – which ended up inside the dress where you couldn’t see it! I was so proud of myself for figuring that out, but more proud of how neat it looked!
