Tutorial: Marvelously Mod little girls dress

Marissa from Rae Gun Ramblings shares a tutorial showing how you can make her Marvelously Mod dress for little girls. She starts with a basic A-line dress pattern and shows how to modify it to create the color blocking and the ruffle neck detail. She made the dress for her niece to wear to a Beatles theme birthday party, and she shares the tutorial as part of the 30 Days of Sundresses series (hosted by Melly Sews).
