Ever since I first saw the Itty Bitty Baby Dress pattern (FREE) from Made by Rae, I had it in the back of my mind that it would be my first granddaughter's first dress. Thank you Rae!!! The pattern is awesome. I used the "newborn" size which is for 7 to 8 pounds. Audrey just went back over 6 pounds!
Well, time was "awastin' " - Audrey is almost six days old, so I finished it this morning:
I used "Bubblegum Basics" by Barbara Jones of QuiltSoup for Henry Glass that I had on hand for just such an occasion.
And an update on Audrey and family: they were released from the hospital yesterday afternoon and we brought dinner over last night (and got a few peeks of the little angel).

Oh, Mary...she is such a pretty baby!!! The dress is adorable and she will look like a little doll in it!
She is beautiful! You, indeed, have received such a blessing!
What a cutie! The dress is perfect! What a proud Grandma. :)
How precious!
We are living the same dream....our little Clare was born six weeks ago. Equally TEENY, and now getting closer to eight lbs. I too made her a bitty dress ....check out my blog for a peek!!!! Congrats and all of God's blessings on your little one.
Mary God bless her. She is a doll baby.
Awwww! Well I hope she likes her new dress...and you're certainly welcome for the pattern, reading stories like these is so much fun! Thank YOU!
Your new granddaughter is beautiful. She will look so cute in her darling new dress. What a nice grandmother!
Oh Mary she is just so beautiful and the dress is darling!
Sweetness and bliss! Just look at this sweet little girl, working so hard to grow into that cute little dress. I'm guessing that when she outgrows this one there will likely be more little dresses and things to grow into, right? Cute little hat she has on. Hope her mom is doing well, too. Really nice that you brought dinner over. Grandma time for Audry and meals would be so welcome. Do you do laundry, too? Lol, just think of all of those tiny little clothes that will fill the baskets now.
What a little sweet heart, and she is absolutely precious!! Congratulations!! The little dress is super cute!! She will look soo adorable in it!!
Congratulations grandma on your new baby girl...so happy you can sew pink things! Nothing like a baby...NOTHING!
Congratulations Mary!
Such a cute dress! You may want to start on some bigger ones too. She's going to grow like a bean sprout.
She is going to look so sweet in the new dress.
