Buttercream and Navy Leaves Dress

Make #4

I love this dress!

I really wanted a dress that was pleated at the waist.  Pleated dresses can have such a soft and feminine look.

To make this dress I used the same pattern I used to make the floral boatneck shirt I posted earlier with some modifications of course (like cutting the fabric shorter to create a higher waistline).  I also used a different pattern to get the measurements right for the pleating in the skirt (this was kind of a feat but it ultimately worked out).  I put it all together and Voila!

Hope you like (love) it as much as I do!
