I thought I would wait and show you this with a little girl in it, but I couldn't wait any longer:
Her Daddy works in the construction business and I think this fabric is fabulous....sooooo a dress and hat for Audrey!!
The fabric is Cone Zone by Caleb Gray in the Construction Zone Steel and Tire Tracks White prints ordered from Pink Chalk Fabrics.
The pattern is Simplicity 5695 - 6 dresses made easy.
I added the Shabby Fabric Rose to the hat from this tutorial from Create and Delegate.
When I catch up with Audrey, I'll try to get a photo of her in this outfit.
