Back in December a lady from my church approached me to help make some dresses to send to another country, I think Guatemala. She is going in February to meet her sponsor child and is also taking some dresses for a program there. A group of ladies have re-modeled donated prom dresses for a variety of sizes. I made some very simple and durable sun dresses for the younger girls. I apologize that I don't have more information about the organization but I am praying that these dresses may be a blessing to those who will receive them.
These dresses only too about 1.5 hours each. I made 2 more but forgot to photograph them. I ended up making an extra one because my sister fell in love with this pink one for my niece.
These are so easy to make. The bodice is a front and back piece with a lining. The shape looks like bunny ears. The skirt is 15 inches by about 60 inches and is also lined. I think if I were creative enough I could make the dress fully reversible.
If you are seriously interested I can some how describe the pattern better to you personally. I'm also working on a doll dress to match.
