Three More Magnolias

I finished sewing three more Magnolias yesterday evening after working on them in my spare time throughout the weekend. Using a very lightweight floral knit for the tops, I made a size 6 and a 14.

I cut the long sleeves into 3/4 length for one and short sleeves on the other top. The top has a really pretty fit and both of my girls loved them.

For the dress I made a size 4 with long sleeves and made it from the same mid-lightweight striped knit from the first dress so the littlest girls can match each other.

For the dress I made a size 4 with long sleeves and made it from the same mid-lightweight striped knit from the first dress so the littlest girls can match. I just adore this pattern. I especially love that I don't need any knit ribbing for sleeve cuffs or a neckband. The fact that this pattern uses a lined bodice is ingenious and makes it so I can use really lightweight knit and still get a lovely result. I'm already planning to make more dresses and tops, this pattern is wonderful!
