KCWC day 1

It's day one of the Kids Clothes Week Challenge, the aim is to sew / do the patterns / cut the fabric for clothes for your children for one hour, each day, for seven days. 

Last night I made a decision on the first item I'm making, for Missy Big, in a fabric she chose from the suitcase, that I'm glad is finally getting used - it was one of those that I liked in the shop, but wondered what had possessed me once I got it home. 

Missy Big wanted a tunic to wear over leggings, so I traced off the pattern for the Dress with Lace Doily (page 60) from the Carefree Clothes for Girls book, it seemed pretty enormous so I took it in, slimmed down the A-line and made it much shorter.  It's coming together very easily and should be finished tomorrow.

So far so good, now what to make for the little one?...
