Baby Dresses

I made this baby dress from my own pattern, but I got the idea of the wavy skirt from a book.

Front:

I used one of my moms baby dresses as a inspiration to make this, it's from the 1950's and the hardest part was the pleats, I think there are 36 in all.
Back:

It also came with a slip, and I wanted to do it correctly, so...
Slip:


You can't see them very well but I put little flowers that I made on the sleeves, I sometimes wondered if it was worth it while doing the pleats, but once it started coming together the look was just likes moms.
