Bella Baby Dress


This sweet baby dress is custom order by a lovely new mom, Feena. At a teeny tiny size of 3-6 months, the dress is such a cute little thing, I can't help smiling when I look at it. It is yet to meet its little owner as I have 1 more dress to sew for her.

This Bella Baby Dress is designed by Tiedyediva & Monkeysbug, I love it! The instructions are clear and easy to follow and the result is stunning. The bias tape trim makes all the difference, totally worth all the sweaty ironing.

Another feature I added as per customer request is the bow sash. The designer, Jen, was so helpful when I asked about adding the sash to the pattern. I am very satisfied with the result.

I hope this special dress will fit the little princess I sewed it for. To me, every little garment I sewed with my two hands is special and I could feel the love flowing into my work. I might not be the most professional of a sewer but sewing little girl dresses really, truly makes me happy.

Today, I am delivering my last lecture at work, before I begin a new life as a full time MBA student next week. The farewell luch organised by my colleagues at work was fun and heartwarming. I'm eager to begin yet another phase of my life, with lots more to come for Lovemelots Creations. I have something brewing in here, in my little studio. Stay tuned! :)

  2. this is super kawaiii!!! i think the dress will get more attention than the lil girl wearing it :D

    I'm just wondering bout the bow sash at the back, it def. adds to the yummi-ness of the whole dress, but being 3-6mo, the baby will probably be on her back mostly, and having a bow sash throbing behind you might not be much fun..

  3. B - it is darling ya? everytime i look at it I fell in love all over again :)

    sue - oh ya, come to think of it that's true! but the mama request for the ties. I know the best solution to that, the sash can always be tied in front when baby has lying down time, yeay! :)
