My latest projects!

I've been pretty busy...and I created a new style of dress that I hope to roll out in my shop within the next couple of months. It's entirely new and probably not super original, but it is SUPER cute! It is a mock-smocked/shirred sundress...very simple, in style and to make...but I punched it up a notch by adding tired ruffles to the base!





I also did a coordinating skirt...these are actually coordinating cousin outfits...




...and check out the latest custom crib bedding set! I was approached by a customer who had been looking for this set that had been discontinued. She had been able to get sheets and few other room coordinates, but needed me to create the bumper, skirt, blanket and pillows. We used a set of the toddler bedding to incorporate fabrics from the commercial crib set and then I added linen solids to finish it off. I am really pleased with how it came out.
