 Ladies' Dresses 

Ladies' Skirts, Blouses, Vests, and Bonnets

The patterns for our women's clothing come from a variety of sources.  Some are simple in design and others offer a more contemporary look.  We will continue to search for new patterns and bring them to you as we are able.

We understand that fit is especially important in ladies' clothing.  While optional, putting your measurements (bust, waist, hips, height) in the comments area on our checkout page will help us custom fit your garments specifically to your needs. 

Over time, we have found that many of you have special requests or ideas for  alterations.  Your ideas have often helped us come up with new garments and one of the main goals of our business is to custom fit each customer!  If you have a special request such as a longer skirt on your dress, a lengthened or shortened bodice, a ruffle on a hem etc, simply e-mail us your request before ordering.  The "Contact Us" button is just to the left near the bottom of the menu.  Most alterations are quite inexpensive and we are able to honor almost all of them.  Our goal is not to make money on alterations, but to simply cover the cost of extra fabric and the time it takes to change the pattern.  We will e-mail you with a price of $3, $5, $7 or $10.  You can then use the pull down menu below to add the alteration to your shopping cart along with the rest of your order.

Gift Certificates are available! 

If you'd like to receive our newsletter with designs, fabrics, and other new things we add to our site, just give us your email address! We won't give it to anyone else for any
reason.

Ellie's Jumper/Sundress

Ellie's Jumper is a easy fitting pullover dress with high armholes that can be worn as either a jumper or sundress.  The skirt has two tucks on each side at the front and back which give you some room for movement but create a nice silhouette.  Those who don't like gathers at the waist will enjoy this style.  Short, thin ties are attached at the back for pulling in the waist.  Finished length on all sizes is about 50".  If possible, we highly recommend that you give us your bust and waist measurement so that we can double check your sizing directly against the pattern.  Design licensed from KWIK.SEW Pattern Co., Inc.

Ladies Button Jumper

Identical to Girls Button Jumper, this is a comfortable jumper for everyday wear. Buttons come down the lined bodice, ending at a natural waist length. The skirt is long and full and gathered to the bodice. Sewn by license from a pattern by "The King's Daughters".

Kelly's Jumper

A shoulder-button jumper that matches our Kelly's Jumper for toddlers and girls.  The bodice is fully lined and has a raised waist and darts.  It is comfortable for everyday wear and should work well during the first half of pregnancy.  The skirt is cut in an a-line shape making it full at the hem but not too bulky at the gathered waist.   Back ties are optional.  A couple customers have claimed that the the arm holes are high enough to allow one to wear this jumper as a sundress without a shirt, but we have not tried it ourselves to double check on that claim.  Approximate length for all sizes is 50".

Ladies Overall Jumper

Similar to our Girls Overall Jumper, this jumper is especially nice in denim and cord for winter or coordinating prints in warmer seasons.  A bib bodice is attached to an A-line skirt without gathers.  A small pocket is is centered on the bib.  If you would like this jumper in two colors, please list the bib fabric first and the skirt/pocket fabric second.  Pattern used by permission from "More Jumpers" by Taylor Made Designs.

Ladies Amy's Jumper

Similar to our to Girls Amy's Jumper, this is a dressy, high-waisted jumper with a scoop neck and fully lined bodice. Buttons on bodice. We sometimes make this jumper a little shorter so that a pettidress/blouseslip can show at the bottom. Yours will come regular length (about 50") unless you request it shorter.  Pattern used by permission from Primrose Lane.
