Kenzie's Party Dress



I was so excited when Kymy asked for participants to be part of the Kenzie's Party Dress Pattern Tour. I Love Kymy's patterns and had been hoarding this one in my Craftsy cart. The sky is the limit with the options on this dress! 

It is available in two size groups NB-4t and 5-18.  

There is also an 18" doll dress add-on available

Or you can purchase it all in one bundle at an awesome discount.

It can be made as the "Signature style" with all the flounces

Or as a simple dress, which makes a perfect fancy party dress.

It has cap sleeves or the sleeveless option.


Kymy's challenge was to think spring, I made the dress for my youngest daughter in her signature color.  I have a large family so each child gets their own color and Kinley's is purple. I love this pattern and all the options it comes with. You can pick it up at Everything Your Mama Made & More!


 For my dress, I chose the simple dress with the cap sleeves.  


I loved how easy this pattern was to follow!  Kymy makes great easy-to-follow patterns with great pictures.  (The pictures are my favorite part, since I actually don't like to read the patterns.)  I chose a nice spring chevron for the bodice and this great Peacock fabric for the skirt.


As soon as Kinley saw the dress, she said "Oh Mom, so pretty dress; is that for me?" She loves girly dresses. 


Kinley is small for her age and could probably wear the 2 but I wanted to make a 3 so we could make it last a little longer.  I believe the dress ran really true to size. 


I love the scoop back detail in the back and the nice full bow.  


Another thing I love about this pattern are the French seams and the top stitching; it makes for such a nice quality dress.  From cutting the pattern to finish, this dress took me about 2 hours.  I see many of Kenzie's Party Dresses in Kinley's future. Thanks so much Kymy for letting me be a part of this tour and for making such a great and easy to follow pattern.
