Pattern is self-drafted. The straps attach in the front via buttons. It has 2 lengths. The back is fully smocked & the front is partially so. Waist is fully elastic. The bodice is fully lined. Waist bow is detachable via pin and can be put on a headband. I made all the little bows. Made the super poofy petticoat that fluffs up the skirt volume, too. ~~Not that it matters.~~ Took about 5-6 layers of tulle.

For the record I showed this to my wife because I thought it was cute and she immediately agreed. I know like, at least 3 women who would buy this in a heartbeat at $25 if it fit them.

Oh I misread, I thought you were charging $25, which we both thought was wayyyy too low. I'd think at least $70-75 and I bet that's still not nearly enough for the work I'd bet. My wife crochet's and...same problem.

Probably closer to 300-400
