Okay..Below are some pictures of more random dresses I made..I guess this is called the Pillow case Dress..I kinda mix and match some red-pokka dot fabric for the ribbon and hem. I also crochet a small flower and attached a button on it..just to add more detail on the dress..I am not sure what I did with this dress..I must have given it away to someone. My kids are grown and they no longer can wear these dresses I sew...
