A Vintage 30's Dress For An American Girl.....

My daughter & I went to see Kit Kitterage An American Girl from the 30's. We both loved the movie. It was sweet and touching taking you back to a sad time of the Depression. I loved the costumes. The girls dresses and the aprons the mother wore. So sweet. After the movie we went to her favorite book store The Book Worm. We found out their having a Kit American Girl Party on the 25th. Last Winter during another American Girl party she dressed up as Felicity from the Colonial period.
So.... Mama had to make her a dress for the Kit party. Here it is !!!
P.S There was a Sock Monkey in the movie when Kit's neighbors are moving a bed out of the house... it's sitting on the bed so sweet !!! I wanted to save it.



Isn't she darling in it ???
Notice a really old Vintage Sock Monkey accompanying her???


I think she is beautiful !!! She loves the dress. I will be adding an apron to the outfit and share pics. after the party !!!


Wishing you all a Happy Summer Weekend !!!
