“Peaches and Cream” for Penny

My Linda Macario’s Penny has a brand new ensemble to show you.  This teeny tiny peach rose print on a pastel yellow background looked perfect with Penny’s coloring, so this little 8-1/2″ (22 cm) imp was the lucky recipient of an outfit made with this fabric.

Penny’s “light as a feather” tiny sweater is hand knit with mohair/silk lace yarn.  I dyed it light peach to pick up the pretty peach roses in the dress’s print.

I thought a little beret would look cute on this little one, and it does.  Penny’s beret is hand knit with natural colored merino lace yarn.  A peach silk bow, wool felt embroidered leaf, and rose charm add embellishment to the beret.

“Are You Ready?”

Are you ready for the first day of school?  It’s not so far off for some, and others have a month or more of summer vacation left.  The public schools in Chicago don’t start until the second week in September and here in the suburbs the kids go back middle to the  end of August.  My niece who lives in a southern state has one more week off.  😦

Personally, I cannot believe it is time to start thinking about school starting up again, but it is.

My Little Darling, Gina, is beginning to get ready and would like to show you her new school-ish looking ensemble.

Who can resist a beret for back to school?  I embroidered this one with a blue rose and added a multi-looped hand tied red grosgrain bow.  Très chic!

Isn’t this the cutest blue rose print?  The colors of blue, red, and green on an ivory background seemed like the perfect back to school palette.
