Easter sewing continues

Because I am somewhat practical... okay, stop laughing! I am practical! I am only doing four Easter dresses for Sydney! And all but one can be worn afterwards. Okay, I am done justifying my love of theme sewing! But, hey, who doesn't love to do things with a theme, I ask you? Not me!



This is the second one. The first was the peas and carrots dress. This one is a reversible jumper. I loved the sweet white bunny looking at the butterfly. And I figured that this might be my last year to do something that sweet for her. The reverse side says the best season of all... Spring!






I love making matching blouses with all Sydney's jumpers. I just think they add something special to the whole outfit. It pulls it together and looks much more boutique that way. I had planned on making a blouse with this when looking in Sydney's closet I ran across this pink and white blouse I made her that worked perfectly with this. The piping on the jumper is the exact color pink!












Last, but certainly not least, is this sweet little aline dress for a customer. I smocked the sleeves to dress up this pink pique some. I love the sweet little eyelet for the collar and sleeves. I did this one a little short so the little bloomers can be seen. This little darling is starting to crawl and shorter is better for her movement.
The adorable little duck is one I traced out from an embroidery site....shhhh! And then just did it by hand. It came out really sweet and she will look festive the whole spring season wearing her new dress.
