A friend of mine, her sister recently had a baby quite early. She weighs less than two pounds I'm told, and is fighting hard. My friend wanted to get her a dress, and was having trouble finding one. I offered to help her out, and this is what I came up with. I designed it myself, I think it's pretty darling.
My friend really wanted it done in a mint color.
No, I'm not crazy. The spoon is in the picture so you can really see the size of the dress, and how small it is.
I really like the white scallop trim along the bottom of the dress.

I thought the pink and white would be nice little accents. The buttons turned out very cute. :) I will be making a blanket to go along with it, and I'm thinking some bloomers as well. I'll post more photos as I have them.
When I pictured "preemie dress," I couldn't have dreamed up how adorable this would be. It's just so sweet in every aspect (color, style, ribbon). I hope the little recipient gets some use out of it and the mother gets some encouragement from your sweet homemade gift. ~Julie
