Ice cream Night Dress
I bought this dress this year but it was not flattering. It is boring looking and the elastics on the hem make the dress look odd too. It just doesn't have enough flare to get the bubble skirt look. Lily hated this dress and wouldn't even put it on.
It's the Icecream Social Night next Friday, and I digitized a simple ice cream applique and did the words with Embird Alphabet #7. Lily is so excited and she's eager to wear her ice cream dress! A dress saved!
I also redid the hem.

Thank you! I actually thought that was a cute dress when I bought it, thinking I could add some embroidery if I want to.
