A peasant dress for my girl

July 21, 2009 by abbie 321 Comments

During our stay in New York, I found this amazing Japanese mushroomy fabric in this lovely little fabric store in SoHo.  I knew that this fabric had a retro kitchen curtain feel, but I just knew I had to make Elliott a dress from it.  I bought it, came home and coordinated a couple of fabrics with it and began a search for the right pattern to suit the fabric.

I found this Maya Peasant Dress pattern on Etsy and knew it was the one!  I’m thrilled with how it turned out and Elliott…well, let’s just say I was lucky to get it off her her long enough to wash it!

So here is her 1960s kitchen curtain dress in all it’s mushroomy glory!

    Just popped over from PW and wanted to say Congrats! This dress is too adorable. I totally have a thing for japanese fabric and won a gift certificate to an etsy seller and thrifted some kawaii looking fabric too! Sadly I still need to get some sewing done but little people seem to keep me too busy. I really like your blog and will have fun looking at your tutorials! Cheers, Jennifer

      That’s too bad! Last week, I shot her an email to see if she would still email the file out if people were interested. So far, I haven’t heard back. If I hear from her, I will post here. 🙂

    I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the layout
    of your website? Its very well written; I love what youve got
    to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images.
    Maybe you could space it out better?
