Smocked Girls Dresses; Ideas & Inspiration
After 2 boys, my little sister just found out she is having a girl! She is due this summer, and we are all ecstatic for her!!
She found out when my Dad was here babysitting while we were in France, so the night before he left I packed up “the Dresses” to send to her. Most of my kid’s clothes I have given away, but I kept in my daughter’s closet certain ones that were “extra special”. I never wanted to pack them away for fear of forgetting about them.
So that night I got them out of the closet and sent them off to Utah. Before I did, though, I snapped some photos of the ones I had made over the years.
So indulge me a bit today, as I have a nostalgic “my kids are getting so big moment”… as I share some of the dresses I have made with you.
Just a note… I snapped these photos VERY late at night and did not have time to iron any of the dresses! Some of them look “wonky” because they are not on the hangers straight… sorry!
This one was actually a gift for my niece…
Easter Dress from a few years ago
Another Easter Dress
Yet another Easter dress, I can’t believe how little she was!
She wore this one for my sister’s wedding, so it seems appropriate that my sister gets it now. I hope the formula stains come out of it ok…
Just a fun summer dress. It’s reversible, one of my favorite patterns, Lucy by Children’s Corner
Easter again…
One of my favorites of all time…
