| I measured out a jumper that fit Annalilia perfectly |
| Two Pieces in the lining fabric |
| And two pieces in your main fabric |
| I added a bell shape and added 2 1/2". The more length the bigger your bubble will be. |
| I sewed the lining and outside fabric for the front and back together at the neck line and top of the straps |
| You'll have two pieces each having the lining and outside fabric right sides together attached by the neck |
| Sew the side seams of the outside and lining fabrics together |
| It should look something like this |
| determine which side will be the back, cut down the middle, 3" |
| Sew a small strip, right sides facing than flip right side out |
| Slip between the lining and outside fabric than sew around the back slit |
| Sew the arm holes |
| Iron a piece of interfacing into the front to add some structure (photo courtesy of Sophia ;-D) |
| Sew a bias, or large stitch, leaving long strings, pull to gather the fabric |
| fold in the edge and pin making sure the gathering is spread out evenly, and the side seams line up |
| Hand Stitch the hem. |
| Add a button |
| And take a picture of your teething beauty! |
What an adorable dress Katie - awesome (and a cutie wearing it to boot)!
