Sweet and Easy with a frill

I have been making lots of bits and really want to make more clothing. I decided to try sewing a top for a little person. For the sweetest little girl, a 16 month old sibling of my sons friend.
I picked some cute material and thought about the style and an easy way to put it together.
I then realised I had no idea of the size that she would be. I had held her the day before at swimming class. So there I was re-enacting holding her trying to gauge how big she was! Hmmm... accurate much!

Considering I didnt have a pattern to follow, I thought through what I wanted it to look like finished, and the process I would take to get there.
I had nearly finished and realised it was missing something... some frills of course.

If you can believe it, it fits her ever so sweetly, and the style of it allows it to grow with her so should see her through the summer. Sweet.
