I finished a couple of dresses for my grandbaby this week. One is crocheted and the other is sewn.

Those are great-I especially like the crocheted one. Who makes the pattern? Thanks for sharing.

The crocheted dress is from an Annie's Attic pattern titled Baby's Heirloom Wardrobe, I purchased it in the 1980s. I had planned to make some for my girls who were born in 1982 and 1984 but never got them done, so now I'm making them for my granddaughter.
