Boys Neck Ties and Miss Lilly Dress

Since my daughter was born I wanted to make all my kids coordinating Sunday outfits. The boys with matching ties and her a dress to coordinate with. Well I finally did it for their Easter Outfits this last Easter. I found both patterns and http://www.youcanmakethis.com/. They turned out so cute. My boys couldn't wait to wear the ties I made them and my daughter loved her dress.
Here they are in their coordinating Easter outfits. I used Amy Butler's Lotus Collection Fabric. For the boys ties I used her Full Moon Polka Dot fabric in Slate. And for the dress I used her Wall Flower fabric in Sky.
You can click here for the boys neck tie pattern. It's for 6 months to 10yrs, so you can use it for awhile while your boys grow.




You can get the Miss Lily dress here. I got the 6 months- 4T pattern, but you can also buy the size 5-10 pattern too. I also made my daughter a coordinating headband. I just used a cheap dollar store headband and I hot glued the ribbon I used on the dress around it and then I made flower (still need to find out from my friend if I can make a tutorial on the flower) and I hot glued that to the head band.

The dress was a little baggy, but looked fine if I tied the ribbon tight in back, but if I make it again I would probably adjust it a little to be more fitted. But otherwise I loved the dress and have had many compliments on it.
