I wanted to make myself a super frilly, ruffled, and lacy dress and matching pinafore apron, inspried by Candy Candy, an anime from the 1970s that was super popular in Korea all the way to the mid 90s. So for after looking through a lot of Candy Candy art, I've designed, drafted, and sewed the dress, and found an awesome pattern to make the apron with.
