Finally Finished!!

Sorry for the night time photos, but it's Monday so I couldn't wait until tomorrow :O

I wanted to add some ribbon, but matching the blue was nearly impossible...So, while I was dying silks the other day I dyed one a soft blue in the right tones. Then I snipped and tore it into strips to make a shabby look. It came out cute.

I left the sleeve ribbons loose because I am not sure how our little girl feels about things on her arms. She might like the silky ribbon dangling, or she might not. Our daughter can decide. She can weave it in so there is nothing hanging, tie a bow, or just leave them flowing...

For the neck, I left the ribbon tails long in the back so she can choose how it looks too. But, the ribbon is functional. She can use it to bring in the neck a size if she needs to, and let it out later.

I have not blocked it...in our family if I make it, you block it (or polish, or tie, or whatever little details are left ;) This gets the girls learning a little bit.

Thanks for reading :) I hope you enjoyed!
