Countdown to Christmas Check-Off Begins

1.  Complete Patty dresses....check!

Finished these sweet little dresses Wednesday afternoon, then quickly whipped up two pair of matching diaper covers out of the leftover fabric.  The diaper covers are not pictured as they are folded in half over the hangers under the dresses.


Size 1 and size 2 Children's Corner "Patty"- the side collar version...my favorite.
Fabric is Fabric Finder's Raspberry featherwale corduroy from BessieMary.
Collar fabric is Imperial broadcloth from stash.


Whipstitch piping is Tropical Pink color and reminded me of peppermints.


Sweet little sleeve


Three little mother of pearl shank buttons and a metal snap above the top button close the backs.


And now my cutting table has become my wrapping table...on to item # 2 on my 
countdown to Christmas checklist....
the wrapping of gifts!

  1. The dresses are so sweet -- even better than peppermint!
    Good luck on the wrapping. I still need to pick up another gift or two before my paper and scissors come out!

  2. Thanks, Jan :) The raspberry cord was so lovely to work with. More wrapping for me over the next couple days...I'm to the point I have to do it around my kids comings and goings...don't want them to see their gifts as I wrap them. :) Today we start setting up the tree.
