It’s FINALLY done! This beautiful little dress has been in my mind for months now but dip dying fabric, flower stenciling, ruffling, ruffling & more ruffling…who has the time? But alas, (and yes, I just said ‘alas’) after weeks of wishing and hoping for time to craft it’s finally done! Oh, & did I mention it’s made entirely from men’s white undershirts?!
There’s lots to do in this dress. Like jumping on couches…
Grocery shopping…
giving your mom the stink-eye…
And oh the accessorizing you can do! Her hat is the one I crocheted from this post & I made the legwarmers from the arms of an old sweater. (tutorial coming this week!)
I just LOVE the way the bottom ruffles look with the cardigan! Whew, I’m so glad this one is done with, perhaps I’ll be able to sleep at night now. (;
So, I left you a really awesome comment, but when I hit submit I lost my internet connection and my awesome comment! So, I'll summerize b/c now I'm really tired:

Absolutely gorgeous dress (and model – could she be any cuter????)
Oh and that is SO not a simple entry. My entry was so simple that I was almost too embarrassed to submit it.
That is really cute and I like that you went purple…luvn baby gurl in purple.
Well I am inspired to go get some t-shirts and start dyeing!

Oh, I forgot to mention that I give you shout-outs on my blog all of the time because you rock my world!
I am also entering the contest, and cannot believe how much creative freedom there is! I lerve your entry! It's like Dana's turkey skirt (technically called the Can-Can, I think) met your curtains met the sienna dress met a grape popsicle! Yum!!! :o)
I must admit, occasionally, the ruffles get to me (I have a boy, so frilly is not really our thing). But this dress is too cute. I love it with the hat and boots. Very stylish!
Oh my goodness! I love this! And Samster looks freakin' ADORABLE!
Dang…that's the cutest dress I've ever seen. Your daughter makes it a masterpiece!
ADORABLE! Your daughter is sooooo cute and that dress is awesome! LOVE IT!
SO DARN CUTE!!! I love dying stuff, it's so fun to see what you can come up with from a plain jane white tee. Good Job 🙂

You have the cutest kid EVER – and this outfit it just adorable. Good job! I love it, and I'm sure everyone else will, too. 🙂
I love it. Samster is an adorable model! I agree with you, simple is good. Your hard work on the ruffle definitely makes it fancy enough in my book!
I LOVE this dress! The color is beautiful and all those ruffles are to die for. What a creative mind you have! Can't wait for the tutorial. And the leg warmers looks so cute on her little legs. 🙂

That is adorable!!! You did an awesome job. I've been too lazy to try hand dying but you've convinced me to give it a go. BTW, I've loved your blog forever & am such a fan, so about fell over when you left a comment on mine.
