At Easter I had the idea of making two seersucker bow dresses for my ladies. Unfortunately, after making a navy blue prototype, and then one green seersucker final draft dress, I was out of time. The second/third one never got made. As the weeks passed after Easter, I never felt excited about making a third dress that was exactly the same. I get burned out easily from making the same thing over and over again. It's why my girls aren't often matching.
But I still had enough yardage of a red seersucker to make another dress. I've just been waiting to think of what style dress I wanted to make. I decided to incorporate a bow somehow, so that when the sisters wear them side-by-side they will still look like a set. Here's what I came up with:
Maybe you recognize the pattern?
I had to enlarge the pattern, since I had actually cut out the pattern pieces from the original pattern. The original pattern is Simplicity pattern #2825.
I am so happy to have finally finished my Easter project!! I am slowly but surely getting things checked off the list. Feels good.

Oh how darling! I love this style and I kind of like how the seersucker dresses aren't the same but have the bow theme.
I have this pattern, but haven't used it yet. I bought it a while ago, and forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me!
