Better Late Than Never

I finished this dress several weeks ago, but I wasn't that thrilled with the way it turned out and therefore was not motivated to post photos. It's not awful, but I don't think I'll wear it. In making this dress I realized that grown-up clothes require MUCH more work and precision than baby clothes. I think I like making the small stuff better :).

You can see a hint of my little baby bump in this first one.

That dress is adorable and the belt is the absolute perfect touch! (Made even more adorable by the baby bump, to which I say CONGRATULATIONS!)

Whoa, I'm loving this dress! Any chance you can point me to the pattern for this baby? Or at least give me a hint on how to start it?

Thanks, much!
