Nursery Rhyme Dress

Maybe I should pay close attention to fabric prints rather than picking fabrics out at first sight.  I bought this fabric thinking it was a blue willow print. Got
home, washed it and it wasn't until I was cutting out the pattern, I took a closer look at the print and figured out it was nursery rhymes!  Oh, well, by that point it was too late and I decided I'd finish the dress.  You really can't tell unless you get close and look at all the different prints, then you can really see the cow jumping over the moon, old mother Hubbard and Humpty Dumpty.  It turned out really nice and its a nice fit.  I will definitely be making this dress again it's B5639, maybe next time I'll pay more attention to the fabric print, but I won't make any promises!








I had to take a picture of the dress, close up, so you can see the cow jumping over the moon, little bo peep ( I think) I don't remember all my nursery rhymes!

  1. Jamie, that is so funny! I love the dress, and I know others will like it too. Oh, and I fed the fish. They were really hungry.

    1. Is that what it's called? I had no idea. Yes the lower neckline takes some getting use too, I'm not used to revealing so much, but I do like it. Thank you.
