So first up is our niece's birthday: I found this beautiful Alexander Henry fabric on the remnant table and paired it with some fabric I bought for a dress that I was going to make LO (don't worry, I saved the Alexander Henry fabric for a dress for LO - it's the top fabric).

The "bloomers" for underneath - I thought the dress would be too short:

Now to finish that mei tai for my cousin and the dress for LO.
Update: This is the one I made LO this past summer - it was a little big and it's meant to grow with her:



It makes a complete circle:

Here is the tute to make the dress - it takes a while, but it's well worth it in the end!
