Monsoon Blues Dress

Filed under: children's items, sewing — anna @ 7:53 am

Monsoon blues - front

Monsoon blues and pretty purples for warm summer days..

Monsoon blues - back

..with a v-shaped back to slip over independent heads, letting Mummy steal a few extra winks.

Monsoon blues - inside

An empire-waisted bodice with an a-line skirt let little legs run free in the garden and over three metres of ruffle flutter softly as she moves.

Monsoon blues - seam detail

The exposed seams are clean finished or bound with hand made bias binding to match the dress.

Monsoon blues - inside neck

The dress is 100% fine cotton with a soft 100% cotton lining.

  2. Anna,

    I just returned from the most fab trip to Egypt, and did not have time to see many of the textiles – would you consider adding some to your shop? I talking about yard goods. For instance, I love the fabric in that child’s dress!

  3. Hi Cherie,
    Thanks for stopping by. I will look into this. The problem is that shipping from Egypt is quite expensive. A non-docuement parcel starts at around £45 or €53 or US$73 to ship to a major European city… If I find a way of doing it for less, I will drop you a line via your email address.
