    The armholes are a bit wonky, and it needs some finishing touches, but I think it turned our pretty good! And the colors are not nearly as garish/fluorescent as they appear.

    Am I missing the PIP? I don't see anything.

    Great job! Did you use a pattern?

    What did you do when you attached the top to the skirt? It always looks flat when I do it

    Yeah, I used a $4 Walmart pattern and some fabric I had leftover from a different project.

    What do you mean "attach the top to the skirt"? Do you mean the part with the straps or the strip at the bottom?

    It really looks great!

     I  meant the waist, where you attached the top polka dot to the flower pattern. Did you bunch it at all? Mine always seems too flat or something

    Yes, I put in two loose rows of stitches at the edge, 1/4" apart, then pulled the ends to make it bunch up. It took me a few times to get it all sewn together, but the bunching was super easy.??

    It's called "gathering", ladies. :-)

    Very nice. I plan to make a LOT of DDs sun dresses when she's older.

    How adorable!  I must clear the dust off of my sewing machine and try to make Katherine some things. I bought a ton of material and patterns last summer but never got out the sewing machine. Sewing this makes me want to try!

    Great job Smile

    That looks like you could buy it in a store.  Awesome job!  I'm so jealous.  I have no talent with sewing whatsoever.
