DIY lace baby dress

One of my good friends and co-workers is expecting a little baby girl soon, and to celebrate this happy occasion I thought this was the perfect opportunity to sew baby clothes! I love making baby clothes because the fabric choices can be so creative, and I adore sewing tiny outfits. Plus, baby clothes take so little fabric!

 I used the bodice from the pattern available for free here, and added a lined gathered lace skirt. The bodice was sewn with a jersey knit, and the edges were hemmed using my double needle.

 The bodice and skirt were then attached together with a blue knit band of fabric.

This was definitely a fun, quick and easy project! I also love the free pattern (link above). Now I cant wait to see the baby in the dress :)
