For Ruby

I have just (almost) finished a dress for a very old and lovely friend's little niece Ruby. I can't stop staring at this cotton/linen fabric it is so so beautiful and full of the most whimsical little details. The dress is an A-line pinny style (still to be snapped), with a lined bodice in contrasting fabric, decorative top stitching etc etc. I added a strip of green birds in flight from another matching fabric to the bottom of the back and I love how its turned out. How nice to know there will be a mangolime wearer in New Zealand!
