Another that has not sewn the Library dress but I have made many outfit from for my children.

How is this format working for everyone? We thought it would be nice to give the sew-alongs a home where they’ll be easy to find, especially if you have questions about the pattern. Plus, it frees up the blog for other exciting things!
