It’s time for this summer’s Sew Americana Tour hosted by the lovely Wild & Wanderful! ย I love seeing all the red, white, and blue on this tour and this year I finally used up the last of my faded blue with white stars fabric that I’ve had in my stash for years.
When I was designing the Crossroads Dress pattern, I had already envisioned a 4th of July version for Bean and these fabrics worked out just as I pictured. ย I can’t believe the 4th is next week already, and even more unbelievable is that her outfit has been finished for over a month, hehe.
This tunic length Crossroads Dress is paired with last year’s Paneled Sunsuit shorts which are a little shorter now than I’d probably like on this long legged six year old. ย You know what that means? ย More Paneled Sunsuit inspiration must be around the corner, cause Bean needs new shorts!

So pretty !!!
Awesome stripe matching ๐
That is an adorable top! I wish my girls were still little and would wear tops like this. I guess I could start campaigning for grandkids. ๐ Beautiful!
What is it with kids always wanting to grow out of the clothes we make them? Don’t they know better? ๐
This outfit is adorable, Ajaire! This was a perfect use of your new pattern, girlfriend!
Such a fun top – love your fabric choices!
This is so cute, Ajaire. The color blocking is perfect!
I was so surprised by the fun front view after seeing the all-stars back. Absolutely amazing!!
Love the blocking on the front…so cute! It works really well with the stars and stripes.
