“Charlotte” is one of those classic and beautiful dresses that just takes your breath away. I created this dress for those of you wanting a special occasion dress that is perfect for younger girls as well as the more “grown up” ones who are not wanting lots of ruffles and fluff but still wanting to be feminine. This dress features a full crinoline under the skirts that is part of the dress to give it that fullness that girl love. This dress also features two skirts, a simple bow in the front and buttons down the back bodice.
Sizes 3-12
This adorable dress pattern is designed with every sewer in mind. If you are new to sewing or a seasoned pro you will find this design fun and easy to put together. My patterns are filled with detailed instructions and lots of illustrations to help you along the way.
Completed sizes of Charlotte’s Dress
All sizes are based upon an average child. However it is very easy to customize this design simply by adding or subtracting an inch or so from the skirt to achieve your desired length.
