I have recently subscribed to the infamous Ottobre pattern books from Finland, and have been admiring all the lovely patterns that I would love to attempt to make.
I am pleased to say that I have completed my first dress from the books. It is a lovely little sundress for Lucy in Perth. This is a combined Christmas and Christening present (since the dress I made her as a Christening present was NEVER going to fit - what was I thinking??).
So, I hope Lucy (and her Mum, Libby) like it, and I hope it fits this time.
I would make this pattern again......now I just need a girl who will be 6 months old in the Summer months.......

That is gorgeous!!! Well done on your first Ottobre, you've done a fantastic job.
WOW WEE!!! That is gorgeous. I love the ribbon ties at the back, and the fabrics look gorgeous together!
That is beautiful. I want Ottobre too!
Belinda, that is just absolutely beautiful!! I love the colours!
I have the same fabric that you used for the bodice to make Hannah some PJ shorts for summer (nice and light, and hopefully will stop her ripping her nappy off!!) I got it from the reminants bin... lol
LOVE the dress!! I can see that I am not going to have the patience for Ottobre...
Belinda! This is really beautiful! Well done! I haven't been game to make any thing from my Ottobre mag yet!
I agree with everyone else, the colours and the fabric combination is wonderful.
There is a lot of gathering there!! I love the ribbon ties also, very cute.
Belinda, it looks fantastic. Great job
