Little Miss. Paige Eileen Manson is sound asleep wearing the pink batiste daygown I made. It's one of my favorite patterns, Babette by Sarah Howard Stone. Such a classic and best of all . . . easy to put together! All you need is pretty fabric, lace and buttons.
Speaking of pretty fabric, lace and buttons . . . surf over to my friend Martha's blog, Southern Matriarch http://southernmatriarch.blogspot.com/ She has so generously put together a fabulous giveaway!
I am planning on doing a tutorial on one of my patterns. Are there any suggestions? The Annie, Carter, Izzy, Claire or Maggie? I found a beautiful blue floral Liberty of London print that is calling for me to make a pretty dress! Cast your votes ladies!

That child is breath taking. That gown on the child is exquisite. Love it. As far as a tutorial, Annie, PLEASE!
ReplyDeletehow precious is that sweet baby in her gorgeous gown!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis precious little baby is my granddaughter!
ReplyDeleteI think she looks adorable in the day gown my daughter, Cynthia, made for her. They sure don't stay this little for long, so I had to take a picture to make it last longer!

What a beautiful baby girl in a precious gown!! At first glance, I thought it was a doll! She is just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteCyndi,
ReplyDeleteI am an avid smocker and love the design of Annie. I followed the pattern instructions explicitly but can't seem to get past the point of sewing the front yoke on the front skirt. It is sewn on, but I can not, for the life of me, figure out how to mark the armholes in the front and back skirt. I would appreciate your help.

Another note from Susan Snow: I just figured out how to successfully sew the front skirt onto the yoke with the armhole curves! SCORE! Now, I need to know how you smocked it across the front with the curve. Any suggestions on that? And yes, it is 2:45 a.m. I am fighting off an allergic reaction to who knows what and between the itching and the steroids that I am taking, sleep is at a minimum. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. susan snow 512-966-0247/susanjsnow@yahoo.com
