Spring Pinks Saturday

I just love spring, warm air and sun that lifts my head to the sky.  It is so much fun for me to make dresses for little girls, imagining them twirling and skipping, picking flowers from the garden, going to tea parties or sitting in church folding their hands all lady like like their mom, for those few minutes!! 

                      The details are my favorite  part!!

  I loved making this with a recycled Laura Ashley dress, beautiful vintage hanky and Cicely Barker Flower Fairy panel.  I have another style dress coming out in this Laura Ashley fabric as well; but I only had the one cherry blossom flower fairy that goes perfectly with this pink, gray and purple in a size 3T.

Doing the artwork on this apron is something I have been wanting to do for so long...finally got up the courage to try it on a dress, and it sold out!! The apron is from a recycled linen skirt.  But I found more of the main coral pink with yellow roses fabric,  so I am making a few more after customers really wanted me to find more fabric!

Here is the full dress with the bloomers (which I adore!)...This one is available just until March 20 or it sells out again, whichever comes first! 

So I am off to sew Easter dresses!  Happy Pink Saturday!
