My sweet Bayleigh asked her Nana to make her a Darfee (Dorothy) dress. You know I couldn't tell her no.
I used this tutorial for the skirt and just added a little bib and ribbon straps.
It passes the twirl test.
She pays me in smiles and kisses.
My heart overflows.
Cutest. pics. EVER! You did such a great job, and she'll always remember you taking the time to make this for her. Great job!

Ruby slippers too! She is getting even cuter (if that is possible).
