The softest 100% cotton in beige, pink and turquoise with lace scavenged from a vintage pink table cloth make Lola Lou the perfect housedress to pull on for coffee early in the morning on the back patio.

I cut the arm holes deeper for my “Nonna” arms and put lace cap sleeves in to add a little extra charm and to tie it to the ruffles. I also added 3” to the length so I could pull my feet up under it when I pull it in on over my nite gown. It was really wide so I took some of the fullness out before sewing the side seams up and adding the ruffles.
