“Summer’s Sweetheart” for the Little Darlings

I was able to complete one more summery sundress outfit for the Little Darlings.  I think this is the last one though… 😦

I made the bodice of this dress the focal point so I designed a bolero to show off the lace and silk long tailed bow when it is being worn.  The lace is a scalloped rayon that is hand sewn onto the dress with tiny seed beads at the points of the lace and a line of pink embroidery at the top.  The bolero is as light as a feather being made out of lace weight mohair/silk and knit on slightly larger needles.  The rosebuds are colorful shades of pinks and purples and placed along the neckline and bottom corners.  Finely crocheted ballet slipper shoes, rose hair ties, and a bracelet complete the look.  Oh, underneath it all is a pair of prettily embroidered panties.
