This dress was something that I remember wearing often. Anyway, I figured that it would fit Hazel.
So I got it out a couple weeks ago and Hazel tried it on. She actually wore it to church last week. The dress was a little snug. I think I was a much smaller little girl. Still I thought it was fun to see her wear something that I wore when I was little.
*I have another dirndl that I wore when I was 11 or 12. I'll have to get that one out and see if Aspen will try it on for me.

I certainly have no clothes from my childhood, but I had some clothes I had made for Bonny and her two older girls wore them a time or two but like your dress on Hazel, they were smaller - funny how that is. But then Phoebe had a friend who wore the same dress her mother had worn to her middle school promotion. And it looked pretty cool. It's good we have photographs!
I love hand me downs! Agnes has worn a few of my old dresses. The Dirndl is pretty awesome. There is a little girl in our ward that wears one often- her grandparents brought it back from Germany for her.
You were actually 8 years old when I made that so you were much smaller than Hazel. It was really fun to make and I still have the pattern somewhere.
