Here is my older dd in her Easter outfit, I'm so thrilled with how it turned out. I wish the pattern ran small enough for her little sister. But maybe its better that they don't match exactly. It is supposed to be cold here, so I'm going to make a simple fleece vest/liner for under her jacket

Thank you :smile:

Everything bloomed early this year, and now we're experiencing night time freezes, so those flowers don't look so pretty now :(

Our house is a huge reno project and the broken basement window doesn't look so pretty. :bang:

Wow! What great fabric combinations! Bleeding heart, grape hyacinths, and it looks like peonies starting to peak through.....but definitely your dd is the best blossom!

Tammy it was surprisingly easy, on the serger. I'm not so sure I would've been so lucky on just my sewing machine. I hate to pin, but it was easy to feed slowly into the surger, making adjustments as I went along.
