No embroidery--Rainbow Patchwork Dress
This was made to order for my friend's daughter. I used 92 charms for the skirt. Took me a while to figure out how many to use for each row.
Lily is modeling for me here.

Thank you! I wish Lily's hair was longer though...Never had it cut and that's how long it is after 2 years and 8 months...

Thank you! I used my serger for most of it, so piecing wasn't bad.

Thank you! My friend showed me a picture online and wanted something like that. I can't take credit for the idea. We decided to change the bodice from black and white gingham to white knit though.

Thank you Lidia! Lily screamed when I told her she can't keep it on because it wasn't hers...

This is beautiful, now are you going to make one for Lily too? Thanks for the idea which is now on the list for my grand daughters

PS Lily is delightful and a great model for you
Thank you! I thought about it because Lily loved it so much, but then my friend might not be too happy because she is a neighbor. She might not want to see Lily stealing the glory. I really should make Lily the peppermint dress.

Beautiful daughter Lily! Your choice of charm packs for this pattern turned out quite lovely!~hugs~ PS nice to "see" you here again & the baby must be growing like a weed too!

Thank you! I bought 2 charm packs of pastel but didn't have enough. The orange ones look ok as they are in my stash but they look a little big out of place. Still, orange is one of the colors of the rainbow, I guess it's fine.
I know I've not been around much and I miss you very much. Lia is 8 months and hopefully she'll sleep through the night soon. I've been so sleep deprived that I haven't feel energetic enough to do much sewing. This was an order so it had to be done.

Hi Lucia, nice to see you back here posting your projects :) Your daughter Lily is gorgeous as is the dress you made. Wether it be embroidery or sewing or most craft projects I love to see them all as it definitely inspires me :)

Hi Lucia, and it's so lovely to see your avatar back on here. I do hope Lia will start to sleep through for you soon. It's hard trying to do things with a little baby around, never-the-less you've done a wonderful job with this dress. Such a lot of work with all those patches. I see you mentioned below about the Peppermint dress - I can just see Lily wearing that. Our grand-daughters just love them. Good luck with Lily's hair growing too. Love Chris

Hi Chris, thank you so much! You do read everything, don't you! Thank you for caring so much! The peppermint dress hasn't been made because I was having a time finding the right fabrics. I should get started so Lily will have something lovely too!

Both are adorable. Now that you have figured out how many charms and your sweet model likes. You need to make one similar for her.
1 comment
I've been thinking about that, trying to figure out what fabrics to use. I really shouldn't buy more stuff. Hope I can make what I have work.
