You guys!

I MADE this!

Completely inspired by this look by Jennifer Lake

While trying to find/decide on a spring/Easter dress for MyChild, I found this pattern on UpCraftClub

And knew exactly what I wanted to do.

I used linen or linen-like material for the whole thing. It is so soft and light, MyChild loves it.

And!

It has pockets!

Right now, we (meaning MyChild) are in our rainbow and unicorns phase, so I knew she’d like the overall look. I also used a rainbow zipper and rainbow thread for the finishing look:

Overall, the pattern was SUPER easy and quick to make, even with the extra maths I created for myself by adding in the separate pieces/colors for the pleats. #worthit

If you like to sew clothing, I highly recommend looking into UpCraftClub – they have all types of patterns, that are quite inexpensive.
