Knot dress

Happy Mother’s Day

The little’s came over and it is always so delightful to see them, it was a beautiful day and the sun was out what more can we ask for? Both girls are wearing a dress that I had made. The youngest little girl I had to make the pattern on my own, just a basic A frame dress. The Older one, her pattern came from McCall’s 6387, a knot dress. I love the material, it looks like vintage sewing patterns .

Of course they needed their headbands to match their outfits. The youngest is obsessed about wearing jewelry, she sometimes wears 7 necklaces at a time.

My Dad built it for her and called us and said “I built Elizabeth a doll house,” so we go over to his house to pick it up. As you can see it wasn’t a doll house but a play house!

Don’t ever ask a toddler to look at the camera when a pack of birds are flying over head. Guess who won out?

This is the embroidery that I did on one of the aprons, a little girl laying on her belly and trying to thread a needle. It was the perfect addition and completed the dress quite nicely if I do say so myself.
