Easter Dresses Revealed

As promised, here is the Easter dress reveal.  The patterns above are the ones I used.  

They came from my childhood home, have been in my possession for many years 

and are dated 1959 and 1957.

Dress number one was made for GB#4.

I love the details that are a part of the vintage patterns.

Of course, the dress alone was not enough.  It needed a sweet pinafore.

The back was just as sweet as the front.

The details continue on the pinafore.

Ruffled eyelet trim,

and a scalloped hem complete the look.

GB#4 seems happy with her new outfit.

Dress number two was made for GB#2.  

I used a different floral than the first dress but used the same pink gingham for the accents. 

The details continue on this dress.

It was such a joy to work on and complete these little treasures. 

I love the outcome.  Mom (CJ) was especially thrilled.

And since the girls were dressed in their new duds, 

I took the opportunity to do a quick photo shoot of their whole family.
