Need Baby Girl Dress Pattern

[alpha238]

My friend is having her first grandbaby and it's a GIRL! Does anyone know of a baby or little girl dress pattern. Can be real girly or a little retro. Needs to be spectacular!

How fun!
I did a search on Etsy and got TONS - most are cheap, too. Check it out: http://www.etsy.com/search_results.php?search_query=baby+dress+pattern&search_type=handmade

Thanks Monkey Pie - I did a search too on Etsy, but didn't see what I was looking for. The dresses seem to be a little too simple.

What exactly do you want? Ruffles? beading?

Ruffles would be cute. Also, to be able to add embellishments like ribbons.

Try a second hand store. I was in a couple over the weekend and saw Butterick patterns for 50 cents. I picked up one retro dress pattern 2-3 times and kept putting it back down. Now I wish I got it and I could mail it to you. Good luck!

Thanks Somethingshiny, that's a good idea too!

I was hoping someone might know of a company I could order a pattern online.

You might find something you like here. http://www.ellieinspired.com The patterns don't look all that great on the for sale page, but on her blog, she posts the outfits she has made for her little girl and they are all adorable.

You could always add things to a simple pattern if you are comfortable with it That's what I would do.
