Alice's new mumu
The mumu (long and large aloha print dress) is a little big for Alice right now, but will be perfect for our visit to Hawaii in the spring, when she visits all of her aunties.  I have collected bits and pieces of vintage fabric over the years and I have been itching for an excuse to use them.  Making this dress in a couple of hours and having no interruptions from start to finish felt really satisfying.  Gabe played with Alice for a couple of hours last Saturday morning and I raced through this project like I was being chased by a dinosaur with very large teeth.  I am not totally convinced that this is the dress pattern I will want to use for future dresses due to the open sides and the ties, so I will keep looking.  If anyone knows of an extremely simple baby dress pattern please let me know.
