An Arizona Dress // Sewn

Every little girl needs four Geranium dresses, right? The impressive part is that there are enough little options in the pattern--neckline, sleeves, etc., that each of the four versions are different! They don't look like the *exact same dress.* Success!My mom made this one in the spring out of Arizona fabric from April Rhodes. One thing I have learned from my mom--it is worth the extra time to hand sew the lining of the dress down, or finish the hem by hand. You can certainly make this entire dress by machine, but I love the precision of hand work. (Or at least, the precision of her hand work). Thanks, mom! And my daughter surprised me by saying she wants to match her little sister sometimes, so I think there might be *matching* Geranium dresses in my future!!! Unless of course my mom wants to make them, and then I will say, "yes, please!" (Rae has a free Little Geranium Dress pattern here. Score!)Geranium #1Geranium #2Geranium #3
