Another season of Project Run and Play is underway and I have finally recovered from when I competed about a year ago. I am ready to start sewing along for the challenges and make my girls some new clothes. Plus my sewing machine has been severely neglected…along with this little blog of mine. Anyways, The first weeks challenge is The Pattern Remix Challenge. We are to use the oliver + s popover sundress pattern and remix it in anyway we want. 
I used two dresses that my girls have and love as the inspiration for these dresses.
I made the dresses in their favorite colors, pink and blue and used some ribbon trim that matched perfectly with both colors. You know how much I like to coordinate their looks without being too matchy-matchy, right?
For the blue dress I doubled the width of the pattern and gathered the fabric to give it a fuller look.
Then I added a little ruffle to the top of the yoke piece along with the ribbon trim. Nothing too complicated but a sweet dress that I know they will love to wear.
For the pink dress I did not stray too far from the pattern. I just made the dress a little wider then the pattern called for and added the ruffle trim and ribbon trim piece at the top of the yoke like I did in the blue dress.
It feels really great to be creating for these little girls of mine again.
I sure have missed it! 
Now make sure you head on over to Project Run and Play to cast your vote for your favorite look. The designers this season have done an amazing job! I am not going to tell you who I voted for, but I am rooting for two super sweet girls that I met at Fabric Weekend, Mie from Sewing Like Mad and Caila from Caila Made. Their looks are amazing and I am still in awe of how much time they put into their looks!
Oh and don’t forget that there is a sew along group, so those of us at home can participate right along!
So sweet! I especially love the blue one – such a classic look!
These are SO sweet! I especially love the ruffle detail and gathered full version. Your girls seem to love your creations, too — the photos are gorgeous!
You did an amazing job! I love how they both turned out.
The girls look adorable in them:)

I like how the dresses coordinate together because of the trim. Little details like that make a huge difference!

Love how they look like sisters, but still individuals.
My question is does this pattern fit true to size? I have a tall 6 year old and a medium tall 4 year old. And I think they would love dresses like this.
Thanks for sharing!
These are adorable. I love the ribbon trim across the front idea.
I love these dresses, your photos are so adorable!
Christina – These are just so stinking adorable!!! I am in love with them both!!! So so cute.
So great! I miss sewing!!! Wish I could have joined in this season, but those veggies don’t can themselves!
Your girls are getting SO big and their dresses are amazing (as usual) I love the trim details…so darling!
