Free pattern: Little girls A-line pillowcase top

Shelly from Giggles & Beans shares a free tutorial at Coral & Co. for making an A-line pillowcase top for little girls. The A-line shape helps keep it from being too bulky at the top while still having plenty of fullness at the bottom. A pleated ruffle is a pretty hem detail. Her free pattern comes in little girl sizes 12 months to 8 years. You could also make this a dress by lengthening at the hem.
