Felicity is such a fun addition to my collection. When I designed this dress I wanted to create something that would be appropriate for girls from sizes 3-12 and I think this dress does it very well. “Felicity” offers lots of opportunity for different looks depending on how you choose to arrange the straps. So, far we have figured out at least 4-5 different looks that you can choose from, just by changing the positioning of the straps. I will show examples of this later on in this pattern. I have also added pretty ruffles for that special feminine touch and a full skirt. Your little girl is going to love all the fun ways she can wear this dress and change the look of it with just a few simple adjustments.
Sizes 3-12
This pretty 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.
