This is the second pattern in Darski's free Harriet pattern set found here
Notes:
My local Walmart did finally have Red Heart Claret so I decided to try it out. This feels more maroon than claret but each year I do try to get there.
This is a really quick and easy formal gown for the 18 inch dolls.
I use an I hook for the dress and follow the directions as written other than I added a few extra rows to get the length I wanted for the gown this year.
I've been experimenting with the trim that Darski calls the Flimmery bits. I've tried soley on the top as she suggests but I prefer front armpit to back armpit.
The shoes are from Sweet Silver Creations School Uniform that can be purchased here. I moved to an e hook for the pattern and they fit mcuh better.
The back gives directions for button formation as you are creating the dress and I almost started additional button holes after finishing the dress as this is something almost every dress does after completion. I rather liked this method as it was neat and clean.
Working on the Harriet pattern from this set for my next outfit.
