Beth is the second pattern in Keeper's Dolly Duds “Little Women” series. The crowning feature is the fitted sleeves topped with a double-puffed sleeve cap. These caps can be made in matching or contrasting fabric. The bottom edges of the sleeves are finished with a bias cut trim and fasten with a button and button loop. A row of decorative buttons add just enough embellishment to the simple bodice to keep the focus on the sleeves. The Civil War Era silhouette is completed with a full calf-length that is embellished with two rows of tucks and a wide strip of bias trim outlined with lace. The dress closes in back with three buttons, but hook and loop tape or snaps can be used, if preferred.
