The lining for Elly’s dress is finished!
The bodice was made with a medium weight cotton. The skirt was made with a lightweight polyester lining fabric.
Despite the fact that nobody outside the few who read this blog will see the inside of the dress, I took the time to hand baste in the skirt sections and to topstitch with the fancy flower motif. One day, she may want to wear the dress inside out.
Now she can.
Update: Dan mentioned that the inside of the dress resembled a Snow White dress. So, you might be looking at Elly’s Halloween outfit. What do you think?

Ellie might keep it for her own daughter so it was good that you made it “perfect”. :o)
oh, I’d like that! I think this is a dress I will never be able to get rid of unless it was to give to a granddaughter years from now.
Thank you!
She’s going to be adorable on Halloween!
Thank you! However, Elly informed me that skirt is too shiny. Here’s hoping she’ll actually wear it on Halloween.
[…] At night, she wore a fleece purple hat that matched her sweater quite well. As you may recall, this was Elly’s flower girl dress turned inside out. […]
