Shauna from Shwin & Shwin shares a free pattern for her Pleated Square Tunic for little girls. She used a cotton fabric for the main shirt, and faux leather to trim the sleeves and bottom hem. The cotton and leather makes a good combo for transition to fall – the cotton feels like summer, while the leather has an earthier tone. Her free pattern comes in size 5/6 (26? chest with a loose fit). If you need a different size, I think you could adjust it using a shirt that fits your child as a guide.
