I started out with a simple enough plan: remaking an old skirt into a dress for the baby. But the next thing I knew I was drafting collars and inserting pleats and what have you. And three days later I had a dress.
I did the collar the same way I did last time except
1) I topstitched the finished collar to make it a bit sturdier and less likely to need a heavy ironing, and
2) I attached the collar to the front of the dress and then bound the neckline edges with bias tape.
I also topstitched the pleats for the same reason.
I haven't hemmed it yet because I'd like this to fit her for a while, so I need to figure out how to do a very deep hem without it looking bulky. This probably means a blind hem. Stupid missing blind hem foot.
