Cute as a button! Zoey could not be happier on the day which this picture was taken. After all, it was preschool graduation day!!I wanted to show pictures of this little peasant style dress and retro kerchief.
When I think of these little triangle head scarves I think of old Mustang Convertibles & Sally Field when she played Gidget. I'm telling my age again......sigh.....just keep in mind that I was NOT old enough to be driving a mustang at that time!
This sewing pattern is named The Lily Top and Kerchief and is by Pink Fig. It features shirring at the neckline, sleeves and waist.

Zoey wears a size 5 off the rack, and I sewed this dress from a size 5 on the pattern. It fits nicely, however there is not much growing room.If your child is a perfect size 5 from the racks of major chain stores, I'd consider making the Lily Top in a size 6. Feel free to email me if you have any questions about this pattern.
Graduation Day
Life is good when you are 5 and graduating! Zoey's graduation day began with a lunch picnic at her preschool.
