Baby Emma Sleevless Dress Class

The class I am teaching at Farmhouse Fabrics will feature this sweet little Baby Dress as the project.

The pattern is my "Emma's Smocked Baby Dresses".  But we won't be smocking it.

I created a sleeveless version, perfect for Spring and Summer.

We will make a matching slip with the hand Shell Hem finish.


I love the way Baby Emma is a yoke in the front but has Tucks in the back.

The hem design was created for this class and the lace can be machine pin stitched onto the dress if your sewing machine is capable.

The underarm tucks create a little additional fullness in the skirt.

We will be Hemstitching Lace to Fabric and adding a Lace Frill to the front yoke.


Embroidery will include my favorite, Featherstitching,  along with the Tiny Chain, Fly Stitch, Granitos and Bullions.

It's a lovely Baby Dress and my students will progress in their sewing skills as we have fun sewing together!

Your work is beautiful! I have some baby dresses I've made using a 1950's pattern I altered. I'd love your opinion, please.

Didn't think I could love Emma's Baby Dress more, but I think I do!
