While the cats away.....

Today I've 'borrowed' my daughters book while she is at school.

The book is Cath Kidston's rag doll book.

I traced the patterns, although you can cut them out. (personally cutting a book feels wrong)

The book shows the sleeves and neck line with a ric rac edging. If you made it without it would be a lot quicker.

Doing sewing on a small scale was really enjoyable.

The finishing touch was to select a button and make the button loop.

I am really happy with the finished dress and can't wait to try another outfit, or maybe the little shoes...
