Fourth-of -July Mini Frock

I had desperately wanted to sew something with a holiday theme. Fourth of July is great because the colors are so classic. This is what I came up with.

This is *not* a giveaway. It might have been, had I sewn the top better but there were a lot of ugly mistakes that you can't see so much in the photos.

I used a sweet cornflower blue and white polka dot material. The ruffled sleeves extend down past the armholes. I also added a little buttoned bib in the center. Lily looked great wearing it to the fireworks on Sunday.

Harrisburg had a fabulous display last night that was synchronized with music on the
radio. The whole family and about 200 others walked down the street to the nearby park which has an AMAZING view overlooking the river and the city. We set up a few chairs, blankets, snacks and made ourselves a great Sunday evening. Best of all, no beating the traffic after all was said and done:)

One more thing, congratulations to Tonya of A Day in my Life who was the winner of the Roosters'n'Rickrack Frock Giveaway. Please email me an address so I can send it your way!
