New in the shop, the "Heidi" dress

When I was a little girl, my favorite book and movie, was Heidi. While sewing this little dress, it really reminded me of the storybook character.
It is a size three, roomy at the waist..............
with cute little lace, and gingham details.
If you know anyone that would love a little dress like this, send them over to the shop!

  1. Awwww, so sweet! I want to buy one of your lovely outfits so badly, but until I get a referral, I won't know how old my daughter is going to be! Until then, I'll keep dreaming!

    I have a three year old daughter, but she is quite big... Please, make one in size 4, or even 5!

  8. Thanks everyone for the great feedback on this little dress.

    @ Ivana... I will keep in mind to make some dresses and other pieces in bigger sizes (4 or 5)
    Most of my pieces are one of a kind, due to the amount of fabric I have. This dress took up most of the floral fabric, so unfortunately, I can't make it in a bigger size. I will be doing a few more summer pieces, then move on to fall/winter.

  10. My goodness, Elizabeth. I have been away for a month and I come back to this stunning concoction. I want a Heidi dress for myself! I am going to do whatever it takes to loose some serious weight and then I am going to pester you until you give me all the details on this little number. It captures "Heidi" perfectly. I am in love with every detail of it. You have seriously "sick" skills. Carolina
