Back to sewing again

Something about having a new baby makes me want to start sewing again.
Since a shop hop starts tomorrow for the local quilting shops, I had better use the fabric I got at a shop hop a couple of years ago.
I figured if I started now I could finish 3 Easter dresses.
There is a website called Project Run and Play that has inspiration for sewing and great tutorials.
This is a version of one of their crafty's dress pattern.

The whole dress, maybe I will make a little dress jacket in green Kona cotton to go over it, short sleeved for our warm weather.
I added some details to the bodice.
Some of the details.  Pintuckage and micro pleats, 2-lip sleeves, a random button Grace picked out (I bet you can't tell which button).
Grace's crazy dance moves.
How is this possible that she did not fall down?
