New ITH Bodice Dresses for my girls...So happy, I finally figured out how to make the ITH bodices in actual sizes...and they have the entire armhole completed with no bias tape that actually fit like they should...Hallelujah! I have made them in the 8x12 hoop in sizes 1 through 7. I hope they like them!

Do you have a pattern that others could purchase? Or did you start with a "base" from someone else's pattern??

This is my own pattern that I developed to sew out in the hoop...the last one I did had the armholes finished with bias tape in the skirt portion of the dress...this one has the entire armhole finished in the bodice in the hoop...

Me too please!
Hadn't really thought about selling it...hmmm, food for thought...
Add me to the list of those who'd be interested in the pattern. I'm sewing a lot for the little ones in my family and this would be great to have for summer dresses. --Sandra
Me too! These are just so cute and original looking. I'd be interested in the ITH tutorial too!

These are adorable - how did the first ones fit? Did someone take a pic of the girls? Hugs, Laura*

The first ones, the Heirloom dresses, fit okay...the armholes were a bit big, but fortunately not huge..I really like this bodice better because the armholes are completed in the hoop and are no armhole cuts in the skirt and no bias tape to futz with. These also run fairly true to size with any child's dress pattern which is good. Thanks or your comments.

The dresses are fantastic, and you made the patterns! Yeah! Excellent - if there were a embroidery meet I think you would win the "all around" for sure!

Would you be interested in writing a tutorial for all of us who have not yet figured out how to do the ITH bodices? You did a very nice job!!

Wow, they are stunning, well done, definitely worth all the work you put in to making them. Any little princess would love one of these. If you decide to share/sell your designs I would love to be put on your list. Diana :)

Beautifully made and since they are made ITH they are all identical for the girls (well except the different sizes).

Yes..and I did change up the colors on the little one...pink instead of purple...but the beauty of this bodice is that the center design can be changed out for anything you choose...I chose this one because I thought it matched the fabric well.

these are amazing! I am fairly new to sewing and embroidering. Does anyone have this pattern that will fit 5 x 7 hoop, would that even fit a one year old? I would pay for pattern. thanks!

Well, just look at your hoop and you'll know it's impossible. You could probably do ITH bodice for a doll. I have 5*7 too and there's a lot of projects that can only be tiny, for example, the baby bibs in one hooping.
got a new machine and it has a 6 x 10 hoop, would this work?

Oh these are beautiful Kim, well done. I love the design on the front - I guess you added this yourself? Can you make one for me too? Oh...;I guess I'm not small enough...such a shame!

Thanks, Tracey...I designed the bodice to be made totally in the hoop and the design was added during this process as well...

Wonderful! I hadn't seen this before...do you have a website where I could buy this pattern and directions? I do have the 8x12 hoop and the wee ones would love these. Your pics are just so beautiful and I can't imagine how you designed these!
