Olivia Dress Pattern Tour

What do you do when it's raining and cloudy outside but you need to take pictures of an adorable dress?  Go to storytime!!!!

  

We have a wonderful librarian that does storytime every day at our library with music, books, and an art project!  Eva Mae is usually running all around the room but anytime a song comes up in the hour she is right there in front dancing to the tune!  I love the picture above as she watches the librarian!

 

The dress was also a perfect fit for a library photoshoot!!!  I love Jess' new pattern The Olivia and how classic and cute it looks - especially when paired with adorable fabric!  I couldn't hoard this print any longer when I knew that I would participate in the pattern tour! 

 

 I tried to sit her down for some posed shots with the 3 books that are represented in the fabric by Michael Miller (Into the Forest) - Little Red Riding Hood, Three Little Pigs, and Goldilocks and the Three Bears!  Of course she would rather play with the magnetic blocks!!! (Which are also really cool - I think I know what to get for her birthday!) 

 

This dress will be one of my go-to dresses for little girls!  You can make it sleeveless, short sleeve or 3/4 length!.  Make sure you also check out all the other tour participants to see some cool variations and tutorials!
