I love lilacs.  Lilac was one of my grandmother’s favorite colors and lilacs remind me of my grandfather.  My daughter was born when lilacs were in bloom and I chose The Lilac Studio as my company name when I was designing cross stitch pattern in the 1990’s.  I think Amelia Thimble loves lilac too.  She sure looks cute in this color.  I knit this teeny tiny dress for Amelia Thimble with lilac bamboo thread.  I chose a colorful palette for the floral embroidery to make a cheery summery dress.
