Free Crochet Pattern preview - Lorraine's Dance Dress

     Hi everyone!  Today, I don't have enough time to post a pattern, so I'm posting a preview of the pattern that I will post next week.  This is another outfit for Barbie and is from Back to the Future.  If you haven't seen this movie (it is from the 80s) just Google it and you'll probably see a picture of a girl wearing a dress that looks like the picture below.

     For this dress, I made a top, crocheted a lacy skirt, and put one of my Barbie Romantic Tutu.  It makes the dress fuller and also makes it a little less see-through.  I also crocheted a gold bracelet with metallic gold thread.  

     Enjoy the preview!  I look forward to sharing the pattern with you next week!

Annie's First Birthday Photos and Free Pattern Preview

     Hi!  Today, I will be sharing some pictures of Annie's first birthday!  I will also be sharing a preview of the next FREE pattern to be shared here next week.  Incidentally, it happens to be the gift I made Annie for her birthday. :)

We had a nice day this week, so, we went to our local playground.

We went on the swings,

Looked around,

And took a nap. :)

And now for the preview...

This little ball is perfect for little hands - Annie loves rolling it on the floor.  It is very simple and easy to make.  The pattern only requires single crochets and some minor increases.  

Next week I will share the pattern for this ball.  Until then!

Sleeves 

Note; The sleeves are a bit complicated, so I hope I have explained everything clearly.  

 Cut 2 pieces of blue tulle 7 inches long.  Fold each piece until it is about a centimeter wide.  Gather one end of each folded piece.  Sew the gathered edges of each piece together, making sure to hide the rough edges.  Sew the joined piece to the crocheted top. 

Butterflies (make 3 in each color; cream, light blue, and dark blue)

Ch 7.  Sl st in 1st st.  Gather middle of ch circle.  Sew each butterfly onto the sleeves of the dress.  

Skirt For the skirt, all you have to do is make two long, white tulle skirts and layer a blue one over those two skirts.  Click here and follow the directions to make two white skirts and one blue one.  For the first white skirt, cut strips of tulle that are 6 inches wide and 16 inches long.  For the second white skirt, cut strips of tulle that are 6 inches wide and 16 1/2 inches long.  Sew these two skirts together.  Make a blue skirt with strips that are 17 inches long.  Sew this skirt to the other two white skirts.  Now sew the whole skirt (which is all three skirts sewn together) to the top you crocheted earlier.
