Polka Dot Halter Top

I made this yesterday for my 7 yr old. I am hoping to make her entire spring/summer wardrobe this year. I see lots of these little tops in my future LOL I used the Mamu Designs Emily Pattern to make it. I love how versittile this pattern is. And it's great that I can use one patter to make my 7 yr old and the baby clothes. I think I may make a coule of these reversible as well. Thanks for looking!

The Emily Dress

Recently I discovered that I have a facination for euro patterns. I had never used one before. I had been told they were hard because you have to trace the patterns and such. But I had seen some clothes for my girls that I was dying to make. So last week I gave in and ordered a few patterns. This is my first attempt at a euro patter. it is by Mamu Designs, called the Emily Puzzle Me pattern. You can make shorts, skits, shorts, bloomers, dresses, halters, etc. Some very simple and some elaborate. There are only a few pieces to work with but depending on what you want you just piece them together like a puzzle. I got it here at http://buntefabrics.com/ Another fun designer is Tantrum Studio. I ordered two of their patterns as well. This was so much fun to make, I can not wait to make more. Since it is a euro pattern it has eruo sizing. So this is a 62/68 which is a 3-6 month US. I am hoping the new baby will fit into it this summer. :)
