Hi!!!

It was almost a year since I made this small summer dress just in time for my summer getaway drew a sketch of the dress and got inspired to make the stitch for the sunflower motif

Concept Design / Sketch of the Sunflower Dress

Disclaimer, I have a notebook with already builtin drawing of tiny girls in poses, so do not get mislead that I know how to draw croquis!

Anyways, so after crocheting 3 layers of the floral motif  in pale yellow with leaves in blue green hues, I decided to crochet the top layer in white just so to emphasize the design below but still using the same motif.

Next layer of motifs in white

Then the rest of the body is done in ch mesh i made sure that i partitioned the stitches in parts where there would be ‘folds’ and stretches because of the upper body’s curves.

Upper mesh

Then i filled in the gaps by just crocheting dc’s in between

Then continue crocheting the upper part to form the upper part. A little shaping for the sleeves and the neckline Ohh… some small florets for the neckline and voila

Tada! the sunflower dress

I added some tassels below the hemline just for a little flirty look. And because I am not a pretty model, I imported my husband’s cousin to model the dress for me and it looked so pretty. well, she is so pretty 😀
