Train Stop Shirt Dress GIVEAWAY!!!! CLOSED.

I thought the look of this dress was similar to the housewife dresses of the 40s. And the idea of train travel embodies that time period for me. Whenever you see a love story that takes place during WWII you can bet there's going to be a train involved....at some point.

I used a very, very soft black and white plaid homespun fabric. To add a splash of color I made the belt and buttons candy apple red. It has a shirt dress fit with retro buttons down the front. With the little red suitcase and frock, she looks like she's ready to go to Grandma's house.

Since, it comes pretty far down on Lily, I would say that this would fit a 3-5 year old. If you're unsure, Lily's measurements are: waist-19", height- 38"

from that hopefully you can sort of judge for yourself.

PLUS, if you leave a comment I will include the most darling matching button barrets, see below.

Last day for posts is MONDAY 7/21/08. Winner will be announced WEDNESDAY morning!

As usual, if you would like a chance to win this frock just link back to this post. If you have any questions see the "questions and answers" link to the right. If you use blogger just use the "create a link" link at the bottom of this post. If you don't use blogger, that's fine too. Just create a link on your page as you normally would and I will see it using Technorati.

I just wanted to add that even if I don't get to change the graphics on the buttons to the right, I should have new content everyday. Sometimes, things get pretty hectic around here and I don't always get the extra hour on the computer that I need to change the pics on the buttons. But please keep checking them out to see what's new!

ONE MORE THING! If anyone thinks that their link is not showing up just let me know where you've blogged in a comment and I will add it to the giveaway that way.

Something that is also a good idea for any blogger is to claim their blog in Technorati. You can do it here at the bottom of the page. I believe they index all their registered blogs daily AND the more you get pinged, the more up-to-date your rank is. I'll include this little blurb in my Q&A for anyone else who needs it.
