Inspiration for this dress came from Pinterest. (I love that site.) Someone had pinned the tutorial from this blog, and I'm sooo happy they did.
I fell in love with the dress as soon as I saw it, as well as another. They're both pictured below. I've done so many pillowcase dresses, I thought this one would be a little more challenging and different. And yes it was. You can see I'm not done with it yet, but I couldn't hold myself back. I just had to share it with you all.

Obviously, I'll have to take the bodice in some. Maybe raise the orange a little so there's not so much white. And I'm not sure if I like the bold yellow you can see at the base of the dress. I'd folded the yellow under for a thick, clean hem, but now I'm thinking I ought to just double the whole part so you can't see the folds at the bottom... can you even tell it's there?
Any other suggestions? I didn't put the button latch on in the back. I was saving it for last, but fortunately, the dress already fits over her head. I definitely want to add the little yellow bow centered on the collar.
