Retro Halter Playsuit

I've always wanted to sew a retro playsuit and here it is. Cool, comfortable and pretty:)

Reversible Retro Dress

Irresistably cute is this Reversible Jumper with round retro collar. Very versatile, two beautiful dresses in one and could be worn on its own or over jeans. One side comes with a huge pocket while the other side retro belt details. Pattern by famed fabric designer Sandi Henderson.

Here's my one-year old princess donning side B on New Years Day 2010.

And side A on a sunny day in Feb 2010. Oh how she has grown. The next time she should be wearing this dress as a top with jeans:) That's how versatile it is.

This was such a fun dress to make that I couldn't stop at one! Here're more photos of variations made and I will update the list where possible.

Ruffle Blouse

Vintage patterns I saw are filled with ruffle sleeves. So retro, so simple and yet, so now. I couldn't resist making this easy to wear ruffle blouse. Comes with two side pockets.

This piece is made of the same designer fabric as the Yo-yo dress below. Perfect for mum and baby to stroll in the park or for that perfect studio picture!
