How to sew a new baby dress

You can sew your own baby dress/infant dress according to your baby's measurement by drafting a pattern. When you sew dresses for your baby by your own you feel so much of happiness. For the sake of your happiness, i am posting this tutorial. For dummies, it is easier to learn with small projects, so my tutorials are starting with baby dresses. I had already posted two baby dress tutorials. I hope you liked them. I will try to post sewing basics as much as possible . o.k. Let' start.
  
In this dress there are two parts. One is body part and the other one is the facing part .
