    Default Christmas dress for GG-Daughter (s)

    three of my gg-daughters are very close and love dressing alike when they can. This will show you the dress they are getting for Christmas. One of them especially wanted black and white poka-dot fabric. this has to have a zipper put in and the pinkish-rose lace replaced with red lace to be complete...then 2 identical looking dresses to make up. There are 2 little boys getting poka dot shirts (small white dots in their material and a red bow-tie IF I can find the 'sliders' needed for the ties. I'm in a fairly small town and wal-mart is the only show in town.

    hope you enjoy seeing the dress

    What a marvelous picture that will be with all your grands!! I still have a picture of my 4 sisters (all way younger than me) in sailor collar dresses made by me.

    It would be so much fun to see all the little girls together wearing their dresses. Great fun and the little boys too will look elegant, I'm sure. Thanks for sharing this.

    Very pretty dress. My Granddaughters are 20 and 26. Great Granddaughters live in Alaska. I don't make clothes at all.
