It came out beautifully, in thrifted polished cotton. Unfortunately, too small through the shoulders for Bella, so I will be putting it in my shop.
I love the fact that the pattern calls for ruffles absolutely everywhere it can! Here they are frosting the top of the pocket. I used vintage bias binding to finish the inner ruffle edge--a little secret for the girl who's wearing it.
And I love the puffy sleeve finished with a ruffle.
Gorgeous! The ruffles are charming. I'm with you -- I think vintage pattern illustrations are almost as fun as the patterns themselves.
