Armed with Simplicity 2668 and this fabric:
I set out to make a dress and coat for my niece Addie! I made a medium even though she's still very little, in case I got delayed in my sewing projects. However, neglecting my housework for sewing, I finished this project pretty quickly. The coat is reversible, dark pink on one side and the same flower fabric as the dress on the other. I had to make a few pattern changes to make the coat reversible, including adding a few pattern pieces, hand stitching the pink side armholes and yoke to the main coat body, and using snaps instead of buttons. But there are no visible seam allowances anywhere, I think it's cute as heck.

Adorable! As always, I'm ridiculously impressed. And, as they say, dull women have immaculate houses. (-; Sewing seems like much more fun!
Thanks, Lelia!
You've made me feel much better about my messy apartment. :-)
