Those are so incredibly cute! I can't pick a favorite, as I like them all. I love the eyelet trim, I love the purple lining, I love the caps, I love the tiered dress, and the bear fabric - where in the world did you find it? Would you consider sharing the pattern numbers with us? Theresa

Thanks everyone. The bear set is a Daisy Kingdom panel that my mother bought several years ago to make for my niece and never got it done. The pink flowered dress is Butterick B4434 The white with purple set is Simplicity 4709 and the other purple set with the eyelet trim is Simplicity 4158 Here is one more I finished last month, April was such a productive month. I used Simplicity 5695 for this one. http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g59/cshortcrochet/2007/DressandhatApr.jpg cshortsew

Adorable outfits. I like the way the stripes are diagonal on the pink dress with tiers. You did such a nice job of matching them up. Looks like she will be on "best dressed" list. Great job on all of them. Marty

Great job on all of them. Marty Thanks. I was actually praying as I cut it out because I was afraid they wouldn' line up. I was very pleased with the end result. cshortsew

I especially enjoyed the red white and blue set! I cant believe how fast you have finished them all!!! I think dressing little ones in themed clothes for summer picnics or events is so much FUN. I am still trying to do the pirate outfits for my grand sons. Going slow because of LIFE you know how it sort of just happens when I want to sew. 15 mintues a day minimum.. get to your studio and make something!

I also love the pink dress and the fact that there's two tiers makes it look much more professional looking! Thanks for sharing!! - Maureen.
