Hello BEAUTIES! If you follow sewing bloggers/vloggers on social media for any amount of time you will have heard of #thelittlereddressproject initiated by the lovely Renata from RunningNStyle. Her goal here is to get the sewing community together and bring awareness to sewing by each of us making a little red dress of our choice for the holidays and revealing it on social media today and tomorrow! 🙂
It was an experience sewing with a color that I normally wouldn’t sew and I have to say it’s so FUN wearing a little red dress! 😉 Search the hashtag and you will come across SO many lovely sewers taking part! I hope you enjoy this sweet little holiday dress, I’ll be back with one last festive look before the week is out! Pattern Review Below! See you soon! XO
