Oliver and S, Croquet Dress {Daisies and Dresses}


Bernadette, from Daisies and Dresses, is here to give you her “Flipped Creation”
for the Oliver and S, Croquet Dress.

I was so surprised and amazed when I got invited to participate in this round for Flip This Pattern! This is one of my favorite series in blog land and I get to be a part of it. Thanks for letting me play along.

Everyone knows how lovely Oliver + S patterns are and the lovely croquet dress is great on the inside and out. I love the way the insides of the garments are perfect.

For my flip, I decided to make a romper with flutter sleeves.

Meet Luna Blue

I edged the front and the sleeves with lace.  The sleeve is lined with a contrasting (matching?) green fabric.

I was going to do a bubble short but I thought basic bottoms helped balance the width and structure of the top.  (I promise, I ironed these but then she played in them.)

There’s a peek at that green in the sleeves.

I think the back view is my favorite.

Thanks for looking.  I can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with for the sew along.

Bernadette, your romper is so cute! It looks very comfy to run in play in. Love the lace detail on the sleeves and the yoke.

So pretty! One question, though. I considered doing a knit romper for the sew-along…but was concerned about the ease of getting it on and off. It looks like you just used the closure as suggested in the pattern. Can she get it on and off by herself for bathroom breaks? I opted to do separates, but would love to do one in the future:)

    You would need to lengthen the opening about 4 inches to make it easy to get off and on. The closure as written is pretty tight going over the shoulders.

The flutter sleeves go perfectly with the butterfly fabric.
