Grandaughter is almost 6 years old and loves "bling-bling" so I designed a heart dress with glittered fabric.  The back straps cross and have three buttonholes for growth.  The heart rosette on the center of the waistband is attached with a safety pin for washing.  The waistband has elastic inserted in it.  I serged the ruffle with a rolled edge and overlock hemmed  with wooly nylon thread the flounces.
