Cinched Waist Girls Dress

Jen Chesnick

Today I have a dress featuring the large Handmade with Love wood buttons. 

The dress pattern is by Simple Life Pattern Co.  It's called the Rayann and is made with no closures.  Meaning no zipper or working buttons on the back.  On the front however there is a band for placement of snaps or buttons.  

I used snaps for my band to cinch in the waist then sewed the buttons on over the snaps! The great thing about doing this is my daughter can snap her dress up herself AND I didn't have to sew any button holes.  Hooray!
