Spring is almost here....right????

Just when I thought we were done with winter......I find myself in a blizzard. The 5 kiddos are all on Spring Break and we are officially snowed in..... I didn't however let this stimie my creative juices. In the hope of spring sooner rather than later I created this cheerful outfit, complete with abstract paisely snails and tiny ladybugs all over. It may be cold and snowy outside but inside Olivia looks so summery in her Annabelle's garden. Yes I feel compelled to name everything I make...gives me a feeling of order where there is none.

So what did you do Today?????

My sweet Emilia smocked dress with matching lavender ruffled legggings. Soft sweet and comfy...what better way to welcome Spring.

I have always had a soft spot for smocked dresses, I remember sitting under my Nana's sewing table watching her make me smocked dresses in bright colorful Hawaiian prints..remember gals we are talking about the 70's here...lol...

It is a comforting feeling passing this tradition on to my own three girls and my customers much loved children.

Enjoy.......and welcome Spring.....

My first official Blog...

OK. Here I am blogging. Who would have thunk it..... I am so excited to be sharing my passion with anyone who cares to read this. Please readers feel free to add to and comment on my ramblings. This afternoon for the first time in quite awhile I have the house to myself and am able to think clearly without interruptions. All 5, I repeat all 5 of my children are otherwise occupied. I miss them, but not so much I would hasten their return.
Along with my current creations I would also love to share my new and exciting fabrics. I am a huge fan of Amy Butler...I love her prints, colors and designs. I rceived a large order today and it is all so beautiful....I could roll around in it.
