How about a little tutorial today? Are you up for that? If you don't sew, you can just look at the finished product - it's pretty cute :) Olive Juice is one of my favorite places to buy kids clothes. Or I should say WAS one of my favs. My girls are getting a bit too old for most of it. While I still love it and the younger two could still wear it, for some reason they don't love it like I do. I think there is some unwritten rule that if your Mom likes it you can't :D Anyone tracking with me…

When I first blogged about this adorable dress, I mentioned the waist ran wide and suggested a few easy DIY "fixes." Per your requests, here's a step-by-step tutorial for one of my favorite quick tricks to make a garment fit better: by adding a partial elasticized waist. This is a total shortcut method, but it takes 10 minutes, it's comfortable, and it's easy to undo if you gain some weight later!
