Before this spunky girl went on a trip with her family, I got a request to make her this nautical J.Crew "Knock-off Sundress."
I made this same dress last summer for two other granddaughters after my daughter fell in love with this style at J.Crew. It was a bit too pricey, even at the outlet, so I figured out how to make it.
It's summer weather around 80% of the year where my cute granddaughter in these photos lives, so even though it's almost September, she'll be wearing this for another couple of months.
Good thing I didn't wait too long to make it because this sundress arrived the day before her family left on their trip.
I loved and laughed at all the poses this girl came up with for these photos. And don't you just love her choice of shoes? She told her mother that the color matched the dress and who's going to argue with a 3 year-old if they are happy?
The free pattern used to make this sundress can be found here. If you haven't downloaded this pattern, you'll want to. It's pretty simple to make!
The nautical fabric is from Michael Miller and can be found here.
She's such a fun girl! Doesn't her attitude just come right out in these photos?
How long does summer weather last where you live? Not long enough at my house!
xoxo Grandma
