I finally finished a sundress for our Great-Granddaughter Skye for her 1st birthday. I really like the shearing & this is the perfect seersucker fabric to make it with. I added a homemade ribbon bow to a piece of pink elastic to make the headband. I'm sorry I don't remember where the letter comes from but it is called flying butterfly font in case someone else does. I just hope that it isn't too long for her, however I did leave room in case I need to add a larger hem

Nice shirring! I love seersucker, but I often catch myself trying to iron it flat!

Thank you Martine,I went very slow to ensure the accuracy of my lines. They are pretty good all but one, it broke 3/4 of the way to the other side but I had a feeling so I had just done a small backstitch prior to the breaking. I was then able to continue with a new bit of elastic to finish the end. ~hugs~
